We demonstrate the four different parameter estimation procedures given above using real-life data. The data given in Table 3 below is obtained from Bain and Engelhardt [13] and represents the times ...

We consider the problem of estimating the quantiles of a one-parameter exponential distribution. Using the estimated quantiles to predict the distribution function, and attempting to minimize mean ...

A parametric family of distributions is a collection of distributions with a known form that is indexed by a set of quantities called parameters. Methods based on parametric distributions of normal, ...
