Two samples of independent random variables with common distribution functions \(F_ 1\) and \(F_ 2\), respectively, are analyzed which are assumed to satisfy a transformation model \(F_ 2(t)=D(F_ 1(t);\theta)\). Here \(F_ 1\), \(F_ 2\) and \(\theta\) are unknown but the functional form of \(D\) is given. An \(M\)-type estimator (based on random scores) of \(\theta\) is proposed and its asymptotic normality is proved, when the data of interest are at risk of being censored from the right.
