A method is introduced to select the significant or non null mean terms among a collection of independent random variables. As an application we consider the problem of recovering the significant coefficients in non ordered model selection. The method is based on a convenient random centering of the partial sums of the ordered observations. Based on -statistics methods we show consistency of the proposed estimator. An extension to unknown parametric distributions is considered. ...
