Often neither the exact density nor the exact cumulative distribution function (c.d.f.) of a statistic of interest is available in the statistics and econometrics literature (e.g., the maximum ...
Gentleman & Geyer (1994) discuss the analysis of interval censored data and present results based on standard convex optimisation theory. Here, this problem is viewed from the perspective of a mixing ...
A P-P plot compares the empirical cumulative distribution function of a data set with a specified theoretical cumulative distribution function F(·). A Q-Q plot compares the quantiles of a data ...
A cumulative distribution function gives the proportion of the data less than each possible value. A density function is the derivative of the cumulative distribution function. Density estimation is ...
