Let X₁ , X₂,..., Xn be a random sample of size n from a population with probability density function f(x), x > 0, and let X₁,n < · · · < Xn,n be the associated order statistics. Some characterizations ...
We consider the problem of estimating the quantiles of a one-parameter exponential distribution. Using the estimated quantiles to predict the distribution function, and attempting to minimize mean ...
