In qmap: Statistical Transformations for Post-Processing Climate Model Output

Rough parameter estimate for the Bernoulli-Weibull distribution

Description

Estimates rough starting values for the Bernoulli-Weibull distribution using the method of moments for the shape and the scale parameters. The probability of non-zero events is estimated as the fraction of values that are larger than zero.

Usage

startbernweibull(x)

Arguments

x	numeric vector.

Value

A list containing:

prob	probability of non-zero event.
scale	scale parameter of the weibull distribution.
shape	shape parameter of the weibull distribution.

Note

In this package startbernweibull is intended to be used in conjunction with fitQmapDIST (and mledist) with parameter distr="bernweibull".
