A Finite Mixture Model for Characterizing the Diameter Distributions of Mixed-Species Forest Stands
A finite mixture model is used to describe the diameter distributions of mixed-species forest stands. A three-parameter Weibull function is assumed as the component probability density function in the finite mixture model. Four example plots, each with two species, are selected to demonstrate model fitting and comparison. It appears that the finite mixture model is flexible enough to fit irregu...
متن کاملModelling diameter distributions of two-cohort forest stands with various proportions of dominant species: a two-component mixture model approach.
In recent years finite-mixture models have been employed to approximate and model empirical diameter at breast height (DBH) distributions. We used two-component mixtures of either the Weibull distribution or the gamma distribution for describing the DBH distributions of mixed-species, two-cohort forest stands, to analyse the relationships between the DBH components, age cohorts and dominant spe...

In this article study summery of reversed hazard rate and mixture distributons then introduce reversed hazard rate mixture and waiting times of failure also introduce mixture reversed hazard rate additive modele and multiplicative and introduce behavioure mixture of k increasing reversed hazard rate (IRFR) Increasing(IRFR).
متن کاملMixed Estimators of Ordered Scale Parameters of Two Gamma Distributions with Arbitrary Known Shape Parameters
When an ordering among parameters is known in advance,the problem of estimating the smallest or the largest parametersarises in various practical problems. Suppose independent randomsamples of size ni drawn from two gamma distributions withknown arbitrary shape parameter no_i > 0 and unknown scale parameter beta_i > 0, i = 1, 2. We consider the class of mixed estimators of 1 and 2 under the res...
متن کاملSpatial Characteristics of Tree Diameter Distributions in a Temperate Old-Growth Forest
This contribution identifies spatial characteristics of tree diameter in a temperate forest in north-eastern China, based on a fully censused observational study area covering 500×600 m. Mark correlation analysis with three null hypothesis models was used to determine departure from expectations at different neighborhood distances. Tree positions are clumped at all investigated scales in all 37...
