Nonparametric Estimation for Density Quantile Function Via TL-Moments [PDF]
The estimation of population density quantile is of great interest when a parametric form for the underlying distribution is not available. In addition, the density quantile function could be used as an alternative of density function. This paper provides a practical description of new nonparametric estimator of density quantile function based on TL ...

Evaluation of estimation methods for parameters of the probability functions in tree diameter distribution modeling [PDF]
One of the most commonly used statistical models for characterizing the variations of tree diameter at breast height is Weibull distribution. The usual approach for estimating parameters of a statistical model is the maximum likelihood estimation ...

TL-Moments: Analogy of Classical L-Moments [PDF]
Moments and cumulants are commonly used to characterize the probability distribution or observed data set. The use of the moment method of parameter estimation is also common in the construction of an appropriate parametric distribution for a certain data set. The moment method does not always produce satisfactory results.

TL-Moments Approach: Application of non-Stationary GEV Model in Flood Frequency Analysis
Abstract The non-stationarity in hydrological records is a significant concerning area of interest within the field of flood risk management. Ignoring the non-stationary behaviour in flood series will result in a substantial bias in floods quantile.

TL-moments and L-moments Estimation of the Generalized Logistic Distribution
La distribución logística generalizada (GLO) se ha utilizado ampliamente en la evaluación de eventos de valor extremo y también es popular en el análisis de riesgos hidrológicos. Al estimar los eventos de alto período de retorno, censurar los datos desde abajo podría ser ventajoso ya que las inundaciones pequeñas son menos significativas que las ...
