If the variance, V = V(p, S) is some known function of the mean, ,u=p(&, where and may include unknown parameters, then given empirical data, this paper describes how to es?;imate the unknown parameters by choosing them to satisfy the variance/mean relationship, and simultaneously to require that th

Long strings of letters generated by intermittent nonlinear processes through symbolic dynamics and texts generated by language-like processes are investigated. The analysis of the spectral density and the higher order entropies shows certain similarities between these two classes of processes. Typi
Using sample quantiles, a point estimation procedure based on the maximum entropy principle is proposed. Under standard regularity conditions it is shown that these estimators are efficient and asymptotically normal. A goodness-offit test statistic is also given and its asymptotic chi-square distrib
