Members
| Member | Description |
|---|---|
| Default |
Use the default method for the distribution. This may be either a maximum likelihood
or matching moments, whichever is available.
|
| MatchingMoments |
Estimate the parameters such that the moments of the distribution match the moments of the variable's distribution.
|
| MaximumLikelihood |
Estimate the parameters using the method of maximum likelihood.

Remarks
Pass an EstimationMethod value as a parameter to the
staticSharedstaticEstimate method of a probability distribution.
