sample_quantile_estimation {RESTK}R Documentation

Estimate Quantiles within the Sample

Description

sample_quantile_estimation returns the estimated quantiles for the chosen probabilities from the input sample. This method uses the sample quantile method number 8 from the default quantile function.

Usage

sample_quantile_estimation(samp = NULL, probs = NULL, bootstrap_sims = NULL)

Arguments

samp

Sample of data to model

probs

Probabilities of interest to generate the max_k line

bootstrap_sims

Number of bootstrap simulations to estimate the quantiles

Value

Returns estimated quantiles for the chosen probabilities.

Examples

samp <- rnorm(1e3, mean = 100, sd = 10)
probs <- c(1-1e-1, 1-0.5e-1, 1-1e-2)
bootstrap_training_sims <- 100
estimated_quantiles <- sample_quantile_estimation(samp = samp,
                                                  probs = probs,
                                                  bootstrap_sims = bootstrap_training_sims)
