Abstract
The two-sample problem where an experimental treatment is compared with a control is considered. Without making any parametric-model assumptions for the distributions(or survival distributions), a measure for summarizing the differences between the treatment and the control is introduced. A method for constructing a confidence interval for the proposed measure is given in cases of complete and right random censored data. This method is illustrated with two numerical examples.
