Sintesi	The robust Kruskal-Wallis test is a nonparametric, rank-based method for comparing three or more independent groups when data contain outliers, heavy tails, or heterogeneous spread. It augments the classical Kruskal-Wallis H statistic with robust techniques — such as trimmed means on ranks or permutation-based inference — to maintain valid Type I error rates even when distributional assumptions are violated.	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.
