Brown-Forsythe's test is developed to estimate whether more than two groups are homoscedastic. In the Brown-Forsythe's test the data are transforming to yij = abs[xij - median(xj)] and uses the F distribution performing an one-way ANOVA using y as the dependent variable. The Brown-Frosythe statistic is corrected for artificial zeros occurring in odd sized samples.
