Regional Frequency Analysis of Extremes Precipitation Using L-Moments and Partial L-Moments [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Meteorology, 2017
Extremes precipitation may cause a series of social, environmental, and ecological problems. Estimation of frequency of extreme precipitations and its magnitude is vital for making decisions about hydraulic structures such as dams, spillways, and dikes ...

Comparison of Estimates Using L and TL Moments and Other Robust Characteristics of Distributional Shape and Tail Heaviness

open access: yesRevstat Statistical Journal, 2023
Correct identification of a probability distribution is crucial in many areas of parametric statistics, inappropriate choice of the model can result in misleading or even incorrect decisions.

TL-moments of the exponentiated generalized extreme value distribution

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Research, 2010
TL-moments and LQ-moments of the exponentiated generalized extreme value distribution (EGEV) will be obtained and used to estimate the unknown parameters of the EGEV distribution.

Statistical Inference Based on L-Moments [PDF]

open access: yesStatistika: Statistics and Economy Journal, 2017
To overcome drawbacks of central moments and comoment matrices usually used to characterize univariate and multivariate distributions, respectively, their generalization, termed L-moments, has been proposed.

Applications of Burr III- Weibull quantile function in reliability analysis

open access: yesStatistical Theory and Related Fields, 2023
This paper introduces a new family of distributions defined in terms of quantile function. The quantile function introduced here is the sum of quantile functions of life time distributions called Burr III and Weibull.

Low flow frequency analysis by L-moments method (Case study: Iranian Central Plateau River Basin) [PDF]

open access: yesDesert, 2015
Knowledge about low flow statistics is essential for effective water resource planning and management in ungauged orpoorly gauged catchment areas, especially in arid and semi-arid regions such as Iran.

Estimation for Models Defined by Conditions on Their L-Moments [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Information Theory, 2016
This paper extends the empirical minimum divergence approach for models which satisfy linear constraints with respect to the probability measure of the underlying variable (moment constraints) to the case where such constraints pertain to its quantile measure (called here semi parametric quantile models).
