Abstract: A class of simple methods of computing asymptotically efficient estimates which ore asymptotically equivalent to centers of the confidence intervals from rank tests for a location parameter is described. Values of the asymptotic efficiencies are given for populations other than that used for construction of a particular estimate. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
