Probability weighted moments: Definition and relation to parameters of several distributions expressable in inverse form
January 1, 1979
Distributions whose inverse forms are explicitly defined, such as Tukey's lambda, may present problems in deriving their parameters by more conventional means. Probability weighted moments are introduced and shown to be potentially useful in expressing the parameters of these distributions.
