Estimating the Parameters of a Convolution
卷积分布的参数估计
Summary Parametric estimation problems are considered when one observes a random variable which is the sum of two independent non-identically distributed random variables. Some basic identifiability theorems are given which suggest the method of moments as a general method for attacking such problems, particularly when one of the summand variables is discrete. Moment estimators and their asymptotic distributions are examined for various specific examples. Some applications…
