Study of partial and average conditional Kendall’s tau [PDF]
When the interest is in studying conditional dependencies, and more precisely the strength of conditional dependencies, some kind of averaging over the conditioning random vector may be needed.

Fast estimation of Kendall's Tau and conditional Kendall's Tau matrices under structural assumptions
Kendall’s tau and conditional Kendall’s tau matrices are multivariate (conditional) dependence measures between the components of a random vector. For large dimensions, available estimators are computationally expensive and can be improved by averaging ...

Multiple Ordinal Correlation Based on Kendall’s Tau Measure: A Proposal
The joint analysis of various ordinal variables is necessary in many experimental studies within research fields such as sociology and psychology. Therefore, the necessary measures of multiple ordinal dependence must be easy to interpret and facilitate ...

Le tau de Kendall et deux variantes pour mesurer la cohérence de variation entre deux séries ordinales, leurs propriétés et leurs valeurs critiques "honnêtes" [PDF]
A measure of the consistency of variation in a bivariate series of ordinal data, Kendall's tau (\tau) has properties and exhibits distributional characteristics that are distinct from Pearson's r, each coefficient deserving its own interpretation.
