The probability density functions as well as the explicit form of the distribution functions of our pivotal statistics are derived. Monte Carlo simulations are performed to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed methods and a real data analysis is conducted for illustrative purposes. %K 11K45 %K 60K10 %K 62E15 %K 62G30 %K 62M20 %U http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s40065-012-0004-7
