The Estimation of the Parameters of the Stable Laws
稳定分布的参数估计
Estimation of the parameters of the stable laws is considered for samples of size at least 50. The modulus of the difference between the empirical and theoretical characteristic functions is weighted and integrated over the real line; this function of the sample values and the parameters is then minimized with respect to the parameters via a gradient search routine nested within a sequential search. Extensive simulation experiments validate the effectiveness of the…
