The resulting graphical methods include normal quantile plots and related normal offset-function plots; and quantile and offset-function plots for comparison of two subpopulations. Confidence bounds ...

Q-Q plots are more convenient than probability plots for graphical estimation of the location and scale parameters since the x -axis of a Q-Q plot is scaled linearly. On the other hand, probability ...

This is accomplished by replacing the Zipf plot by a generalized quantile plot. We make an asymptotic comparison of our estimator with the moment estimator and with the maximum likelihood estimator.

This example, which is a continuation of Example 10.1, demonstrates techniques for estimating the shape parameter, location and scale parameters, and theoretical percentiles for a lognormal ...
