This paper deals with the comparison of parameter estimation methods in a 3-parameter Kappa distribution which is sometimes used in flood frequency analysis. Method of moment estimation(MME), L-moment estimation(L-ME), and maximum likelihood estimation(MLE) are applied to estimate three parameters. The performance of these methods are compared by Monte-carlo simulations. Especially for computing MME and L-ME, three dimensional nonlinear equations are simplified to one dimensional equation which is calculated by the Newton-Raphson iteration under constraint. Based on the criterion of the mean squared error, L-ME (or MME) is recommended to use for small sample size( n$\le$100) while MLE is good for large sample size.

본 연구에서는 Probability Weighted Moments의 새로운 선형조합기법인 LQ-moments를 이용하여 GEV 분포의 매개변수를 추정하고 L, LH, LQ-moments를 사용하여 뉴욕주의 Donnattsburg에 위치한 Independence River의 홍수량을 빈도 해석하였다. LH, LQ-moments가 제시된 근본적인 이유는 L-moments가 극치값에 내해 지나치게 민감한 단점을 보완하기 위해서인데, 이번 연구의 결과에 의하면 오히려 LH, LQ-moments가 극치값에 대해 민감하게 반응하여 부정확한 결과가 도출되었다. 그러므로 항상 LH, LQ-moments가 L-moments의 대안이 될 수 있는 것은 아님을 알게 되었다. 그리고 수학적 유도에서 L, LH, LQ-moments는 좀더 쉽고 간편한 메개변수 추정을 위해 Probability Weighted Moments의 선형조합을 통해 고안되었다는 공통점을 가지고 있지만, 이 점을 제외한 나머지 부분의 수식 유도에서는 서로 많은 차이가 있어서 지역적인 특성과 확률분포형의 특성을 고려하여 L, LH, LQ-moments 중에서 선별 사용해야 할 것이다.

The studied in this paper is a new algorithm for searching the maximum likelihood estimate(MLE) in which probability density function is not explicitly expressed. Newton-Raphson's root-finding routine and a nonlinear numerical optimization algorithm with constraint (so-called feasible sequential quadratic programming) are used. This algorithm is applied to the Wakeby distribution which is importantly used in hydrology and water resource research for analysis of extreme rainfall. The performance comparison between maximum likelihood estimates and method of L-moment estimates (L-ME) is studied by Monte-carlo simulation. The recommended methods are L-ME for up to 300 observations and MLE for over the sample size, respectively. Methods for speeding up the algorithm and for computing variances of estimates are discussed.

The objective of this study is to induce the design drought rainfall by the methodology of L-moment including testing homogeneity, independence and outlier of the data of annual minimum monthly rainfall in 57 rainfall stations in Korea in terms of consecutive duration for 1, 2, 4, 6, 9 and 12 months. To select appropriate distribution of the data for annual minimum monthy rainfall by rainfall station, the distribution of generalized extreme value (GEV), generalized logistic (GLO) as well as that of generalized pareto (GPA) are applied and the appropriateness of the applied GEV, GLO, and GPA distribution is judged by L-moment ratio diagram and Kolmogorov-Smirnov (K-S) test. As for the annual minimum monthly rainfall measured by rainfall station and that stimulated by Monte Carlo techniques, the parameters of the appropriately selected GEV and GPA distributions are calculated by the methodology of L-moment and the design drought rainfall is induced. Through the comparative analysis of design drought rainfall induced by GEV and GPA distribution by rainfall station, the optimal design drought rainfall by rainfall station is provided.

This research seeks to derive the design rainfalls through the L-moment with the test of homogeneity, independence and outlier of data on annual maximum daily rainfall at 38 rainfall stations in Korea. To select the appropriate distribution of annual maximum daily rainfall data by the rainfall stations, Generalized Extreme Value (GEV), Generalized Logistic (GLO), Generalized Pareto (GPA), Generalized Normal (GNO) and Pearson Type 3 (PT3) probability distributions were applied and their aptness were judged using an L-moment ratio diagram and the Kolmogorov-Smirnov (K-S) test. Parameters of appropriate distributions were estimated from the observed and simulated annual maximum daily rainfall using Monte Carlo techniques. Design rainfalls were finally derived by GEV distribution, which was proved to be more appropriate than the other distributions.

It is already known from the previous study that flood seems to have heavier tail. Therefore, to make prediction of future extreme label, some agreement of tail behavior of extreme data is highly required. The LH-moments estimation method, the generalized form of L-moments is an useful method of characterizing the upper part of the distribution. LH-moments are based on linear combination of higher order statistics. In this study, we have formulated LH-moments of five distributions useful in hydrology such as, two types of three parameter kappa distributions, beta-${\kappa}$ distribution, beta-p distribution and a generalized Gumbel distribution. Using LH-moments reduces the undue influences that small sample may have on the estimation of large return period events.

GEV분포는 세계 여러 나라에서 홍수와 극한강우 등의 빈도분포로 널리 활용되고 있다. L-모멘트법은 GEV분포의 매개변수 추정을 위해 일반적으로 사용되고 있는 추정법이다. 본 연구에서는 Monte Carlo 실험을 이용하여 GEV분포를 따르는 서로 다른 두 지점의 자료의 교차상관계수를 이용하여 L-모멘트 추정값인 L-변동계수와 L-왜도계수들 간의 교차상관계수를 Simple Power 함수를 이용하여 유도하였다. 실험과정에서 생성된 비현실적이며 실험결과에 큰 영향을 미치는 음수값들을 배재한 GEV+분포를 이용하였다. 결과로, Simple Power 함수가 두지점간 자료의 교차상관과 L-모멘트 추정값들간의 교차상관 계수의 관계를 잘 모사하고 있음을 확인하였다. 다양한 GEV 분포의 매개변수 조합에 대한 Simple Power 함수의 매개변수 추정값과 정확성은 표로 제시하였다. 또한 위 연구결과를 활용할 수 있는 Generalised Least Square(GLS) 지역회귀 기법에 대해 설명하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서 도출된 관계식은 향후 GLS 회귀식을 이용한 GEV 분포의 지역 매개변수를 추정하는데 있어 L-모멘트 추정값들간의 정확한 교차상관관계를 제시할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

This study was carried out to select optimal probability distribution based on design accumulated monthly mean inflow from the viewpoint of drought by Gamma (GAM), Generalized extreme value (GEV), Generalized logistic (GLO), Generalized normal (GNO), Generalized pareto (GPA), Gumbel (GUM), Normal (NOR), Pearson type 3 (PT3), Wakeby (WAK) and Kappa (KAP) distributions for the observed accumulative monthly mean inflow of Chungjudam. L-moment ratio was calculated using observed accumulative monthly mean inflow. Parameters of 10 probability distributions were estimated by the method of L-moments with the observed accumulated monthly mean inflow. Design accumulated monthly mean inflows obtained by the method of L-moments using different methods for plotting positions formulas in the 10 probability distributions were compared by relative mean error (RME) and relative absolute error (RAE) respectively. It has shown that the design accumulative monthly mean inflow derived by the method of L-moments using Weibull plotting position formula in WAK and KAP distributions were much closer to those of the observed accumulative monthly mean inflow in comparison with those obtained by the method of L-moment with the different formulas for plotting positions in other distributions from the viewpoint of RME and RAE.
