Notes: Sample sizes are given for group 1, followed by group 2. LW denotes the Lin-Wang test, and denotes the weighted version of the LW test, with weights as described in the text. The empirical powers of the two-sided test statistics were estimated from 5000 simulations, at nominal alpha level 0.05.
