Order statistics from nonnormal populations
非正态总体的次序统计量
Expressions for the moments of the rth order statistics of a sample from a population whose distribution can be represented by the Edgeworth series have been obtained in this note. The moments of the rth order statistics have been expressed in terms of the moments of an extreme value for which the author (1967) has established certain results. The corrective functions arising due to nonnormality are tabulated for the first four moments. The moments of median are studied in…
