Abstract
In the estimation of a location parameter the Hodges-Lehmann estimator is known to have some "robust" properties, but it is very "expensive" for large sample sizes. By using the linearity of a special rank statistic we can find a linearized version which requires only $O(n \log n)$ operations.
