U-statistic: History, Definition & Examples

In statistical theory, a U-statistic is a class of statistics defined as the average over the application of a given function applied to all tuples of a fixed size. The letter "U" stands for unbiased.[citation needed] In elementary statistics, U-statistics arise naturally in producing minimum-variance unbiased estimators.
