GOODNESS-OF-FIT AND STABILITY ASSESSMENT IN FLOOD FREQUENCY ANALYSIS

Assessment of Goodness of Fit Methods in Determining the Best Regional Probability Distribution of Rainfall Data

One of the most important problems in time series analysis of stream flow and rainfall data in an area is selecting the best probability distribution. Since the rainfall stations are associated and correlated with each other, so statistical analysis of the station data seamlessly are very important. Therefore, the first step in data analysis, is selecting the prevailing probability distribution...

Goodness-of-fit test for meta-analysis

Meta-analysis is a very useful tool to combine information from different sources. Fixed effect and random effect models are widely used in meta-analysis. Despite their popularity, they may give us misleading results if the models don't fit the data but are blindly used. Therefore, like any statistical analysis, checking the model fitting is an important step. However, in practice, the goodness...
