title: On plotting renovated samples.
abstract: In this note we use the Buckley-James method for censored regression in the p sample problem where the samples are subject to right-censoring. The samples are reconstructed so as to remove the effect of censoring, and graphical procedures based on quantiles (such as boxplots) may then be used as a standard data-analytic tool to describe the variable being measured.
