Q-Q plots are more convenient than probability plots for graphical estimation of the location and scale parameters since the x -axis of a Q-Q plot is scaled linearly. On the other hand, probability ...

This example illustrates how you can use a normal Q-Q plot to estimate the capability index Cpk. The data used here are the distance measurements provided in the "Creating a Normal Quantile-Quantile ...

The resulting graphical methods include normal quantile plots and related normal offset-function plots; and quantile and offset-function plots for comparison of two subpopulations. Confidence bounds ...

This is accomplished by replacing the Zipf plot by a generalized quantile plot. We make an asymptotic comparison of our estimator with the moment estimator and with the maximum likelihood estimator.
