A Unified Approach to Choosing Optimum Quantiles for the ABLE's

Abstract

Due to its computational simplicity and efficiency, asymptotically best linear estimates (ABLE) based on order statistics selected from a complete, or censored, sample are of particular importance. This article deals with a unified method for finding the optimum spacing (eventually the optimum rank of the order statistics) for the ABLE. Application of the method estimating one of the two (location and scale) parameters of various distributions is also discussed.
