Minimum sample size determination for generalized extreme value distribution (2010)
Journal Article
Cai, Y., & Hames, D. (2010). Minimum sample size determination for generalized extreme value distribution. Communications in Statistics - Simulation and Computation, 40(1), 87-98. https://doi.org/10.1080/03610918.2010.530368

Sample size determination is an important issue in statistical analysis. Obviously, the larger the sample size is, the better the statistical results we have. However, in many areas such as coastal engineering and environmental sciences, it can be ve... Read More about Minimum sample size determination for generalized extreme value distribution.
