Hi All, I am trying to estimate a functional form in terms of cumulants / moments from the results of a MC simulation. My first idea was to use an Edgeworth expansion, but this looks pretty difficult to implement. Before I go ahead and write some code to do this, could anyone tell me if this has already been done, and which package I could find it in if it has? If it hasn't, does anyone know of any simpler method than that described in Blinnikov and Moessner ? Thanks in advance.
