[R] computing AIC when distribution is fitted by lmom or lmomco
Dear list members, Is it possible to compute in R AIC, when model was fitted by methods of L-moments (packages lmom or lmomco)? Or what could be used to compare different candidate distribution models fitting to data? Sorry I have no reproducible example, because I do not know how this (AIC) could be evaluated in this case or even if it has sense, but I appreciate any suggestion. Thanks, Milan

dear Milan, I think you should consult a (local) statistician for your analyses. R (and packages) are "only" software, and you need theoretical background. best, vito Il 05/05/2015 14.25, Milan Cisty ha scritto:> Dear list members, > Is it possible to compute in R AIC, when model was fitted by methods of > L-moments (packages lmom or lmomco)? > Or what could be used to compare different candidate distribution models > fitting to data? > Sorry I have no reproducible example, because I do not know how this (AIC) > could be evaluated in this case or even if it has sense, but I appreciate > any suggestion. > Thanks, > Milan > > ______________________________________________ > R-help at r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html > and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. >-- =============================================Vito M.R.
