Robust Mann-Whitney U test
The Robust Mann-Whitney U test is a nonparametric two-group comparison that combines the rank-based logic of the classic Mann-Whitney U test with modern robust techniques — such as outlier screening, trimmed means, or robust variance estimation — to produce reliable inferences when data contain extreme values, heavy-tailed distributions, or other violations that compromise the standard test.
