Subject: Error in Johnson Fit
Dear Sir/Madam,
As mentioned in help, R reports error while fitting Johnson distribution by
method of moments. I have used moments from Weibull distribution and
hence it is well within the feasible
area and try to fit Johnson distribution using method of moments.
As for example,
shape=0.5 # Shape Parameter of IID Weibull Stress #
scale=1 # Scale Parameter of IID Weibull Stress #
k_raw= function(k) (scale^k)*(gamma(1+k/shape)) # kth order raw
moment of Weibull #
# Central Moments #
k1=k_raw(1)
k2=k_raw(2)-(k_raw(1))^2
k3=k_raw(3)-3*k_raw(2)*k_raw(1)+3*(k_raw(1))^3 -(k_raw(1))^3
k4=k_raw(4)-4*k3*k1-3*(k2)^2 - 6*(k2)*(k1)^2-(k1)^4
theta=c( k1, k2 , k3 , k4+3*(k2)^2)
parms<-JohnsonFit(theta,moment="use")
Error in JohnsonFit(theta, moment = "use") :
Couldn't do an Sb fit
I will be thankful if you please let me know elaborately the exact
difficulty which causes such errors.
