Information-Loss Location Estimation and Curvature-Scale Analysis of Physical Measurements: A Gaussian, Cauchy, and Logistic Neutron-Lifetime Benchmark

Victor V. Golovko

We develop and implement a two-step location-scale analysis for repeated physical measurements when the underlying distribution is not known. For a chosen substitute distribution,…
