lmompe3 | R Documentation |
This function estimates the L-moments of the Pearson Type III distribution given the parameters (\mu
, \sigma
, and \gamma
) from parpe3
as the product moments: mean, standard deviation, and skew. The first three L-moments in terms of these parameters are complex and numerical methods are required. For simplier expression of the distribution functions (cdfpe3
, pdfpe3
, and quape3
) the “moment parameters” are expressed differently.
The Pearson Type III distribution is of considerable theoretical interest because the parameters, which are estimated via the L-moments, are in fact the product moments. Although, these values fitted by the method of L-moments will not be numerically equal to the sample product moments. Further details are provided in the Examples section of the pmoms
function documentation.
