Identification of Parameters by the Distribution of a Maximum Random Variable
通过最大值随机变量的分布识别参数
Summary Under what conditions does the distribution of the maximum of a set of independent random variables uniquely determine the distributions of the component random variables? In the univariate case, a sufficient condition is that for every pair of distinct densities in the family of possible densities, one density converges to zero infinitely faster than the other, as x → ∞. Hence, the distribution of max {X i, i = 1, ..., n} when X i has the distribution N(μi, σ2 i),…
