LQ-Moments: Application to the Log-Normal distribution [PDF]
Summary: \textit{G. S. Mudolkar} and \textit{A. D. Hutson} [J. Stat. Plann. Inference 71, No.~1--2, 191--208 (1998; Zbl 0981.62039)] extended L-moments to new moments called LQ-moments (LQMOM). The LQMOM are constructed by using functionals defining quick estimators, where the parameters of quick estimators take the values \(p = 0\), \(\alpha = 1\) for

Investigating the Effect of Distribution Function and Potential Evapotranspiration Assessment Method in Determining Reconnaissance Drought Index [PDF]
Iran is located in arid and semi-arid regions in the world and therefore, drought monitoring has an important role in there. Drought assessment is conventionally based on drought indices such as Reconnaissance Drought Index (RDI).

Discriminating between the Weibull and log‐normal distributions [PDF]
AbstractLog‐normal and Weibull distributions are the most popular distributions for modeling skewed data. In this paper, we consider the ratio of the maximized likelihood in choosing between the two distributions. The asymptotic distribution of the logarithm of the maximized likelihood ratio has been obtained.

Model misspecification of Log-Normal and Birnbaum-Saunders distributions
Abstract Model misspecification can be a serious issue in any lifetime data analysis. Assumption of the correct model is very important particularly in prediction for future observations and for estimating the tail probabilities of any lifetime distribution.

In this study, we consider an alternative to the log-skew-normal distribution. It is called the modified log-skew-normal distribution and introduces greater flexibility in the skewness and kurtosis parameters.

Maximum discharge and probable rainfall at Aiuruoca basin, Minas Gerais State
Research on rainfall and annual daily maximum discharge rates is essential to support decisions during the design of hydraulic structures. This study tested the adequacy of probability functions to predict the probable rainfall and discharge rates of the

ABSTRACT Background Survival after relapse in pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) remains poor, highlighting the critical importance of identifying prognostic factors to guide optimal relapse management. Methods We investigated the prognostic impact of multiparameter flow cytometry (MFC) measurable residual disease (MRD) in 188 patients with first ...

Impact of Metastatic Patterns on Survival and Response to Therapy in Neuroblastoma
ABSTRACT Background While the presence of metastases in neuroblastoma (NB) is a well‐established prognostic factor, the clinical significance of dissemination patterns and tumour burden and their impact on response and survival remains poorly understood.
