Journal of Nonparametric Statistics provides a medium for the publication of research and survey work in nonparametric statistics and related areas. The scope includes, but is not limited to the following topics:

    Nonparametric modeling
    Nonparametric function estimation
    Rank and other robust and distribution-free procedures
    Resampling methods
    Lack-of-fit testing
    Multivariate analysis
    Inference with high-dimensional data
    Dimension reduction and variable selection
    Methods for errors in variables, missing, censored, and other incomplete data structures
    Inference of stochastic processes
    Sample surveys
    Time series analysis
    Longitudinal and functional data analysis
    Nonparametric Bayes methods and decision procedures
    Semiparametric models and procedures
    Statistical methods for imaging and tomography
    Statistical inverse problems
    Financial statistics and econometrics
    Bioinformatics and comparative genomics
    Statistical algorithms and machine learning.

Both the theory and applications of nonparametric statistics are covered in the journal. Research applying nonparametric methods to medicine, engineering, technology, science and humanities is welcomed, provided the novelty and quality level are of the highest order.

Authors are encouraged to submit supplementary technical arguments, computer code, data analysed in the paper or any additional information for online publication along with the published paper.


Peer Review Policy

All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor. If found suitable for further consideration, papers are subject to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is single anonymized and submissions can be made online at http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/gnst.
