parwei {lmomco} | R Documentation |
This function estimates the parameters of the Weibull distribution given
the L-moments of the data in an L-moment object such as that returned by
lmom.ub
. The Weibull distribution is a reverse Generalized Extreme Value distribution. As result, the Generalized Extreme Value algorithms are used for implementation of the Weibull in this package. The relation between the Generalized Extreme Value parameters (xi, α, and kappa) is
kappa = 1/delta mbox{,}
α = β/delta mbox{, and}
xi = zeta - β mbox{.}
These relations are taken from Hosking and Wallis (1997).
