Distribution fitting 16. How many colors are actually in the field?
arXiv:1205.4306
Abstract
A study to compare different methods of estimation was conducted. The goal was to provide an estimate for the number of petal colors existing in the field by using a random sample of Lycoris longituba flowers taken from the field. The study revealed that the estimation from observed sample agrees very well with third order Jackknife method of estimation.
