Joint probability density function estimation by spectral estimate methods
Estimation of probability density functions (PDFs) of a given random variable (r.v.) is involved in topics related to codification, speech or whenever a short record of data is available but a greater amount is needed. Existing methods go from the so-called Minimum Description-Length method, up to others based on the maximisation of the differential entropy imposing constraints on the moments o...
متن کاملEvaluation of estimation methods for parameters of the probability functions in tree diameter distribution modeling
One of the most commonly used statistical models for characterizing the variations of tree diameter at breast height is Weibull distribution. The usual approach for estimating parameters of a statistical model is the maximum likelihood estimation (likelihood method). Usually, this works based on iterative algorithms such as Newton-Raphson. However, the efficiency of the likelihood method is not...
متن کاملEnsembles of change-point methods to estimate the change point in residual sequences
Change-Point Methods (CPMs) are statistical tests design to assess whether a given sequence comes from an unique, stationary, data-generating process. CPMs eventually estimate the change-point location, i.e., the point where the data-generating process shifted. While there exists a large literature concerning CPMs meant for sequences of independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) random va...
متن کاملEvaluation of Methods to Estimate Understory Fruit Biomass
Fleshy fruit is consumed by many wildlife species and is a critical component of forest ecosystems. Because fruit production may change quickly during forest succession, frequent monitoring of fruit biomass may be needed to better understand shifts in wildlife habitat quality. Yet, designing a fruit sampling protocol that is executable on a frequent basis may be difficult, and knowledge of accu...
متن کاملEvaluation of Two Methods to Estimate and Monitor Bird Populations
BACKGROUND Effective management depends upon accurately estimating trends in abundance of bird populations over time, and in some cases estimating abundance. Two population estimation methods, double observer (DO) and double sampling (DS), have been advocated for avian population studies and the relative merits and short-comings of these methods remain an area of debate. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL...
