Card-Shuffling Analysis with Weighted Rank Distance

In this paper, we cite two weighted rank distances (Wilcoxon rank and Log rank) to analyze how many times must a deck of 52 cards be shuffled to become
sufficiently randomized. Bayer and Diaconis (1992) used the variation distance as a measure of randomness to analyze the card-shuffling. Lin (2006) used the deviation distance to analyze card-shuffling without complicated mathematics formulas. We provide two new ideas to measure the distance for card-shuffling analysis.
