dc.description.abstractSome general asymptotic methods of estimating the quantile function, Q(ξ), 0>ξ>1 of location-scale families of distributions based on a few selected order statistics are considered, with applications to some non-regular distributions. Specific results are discussed for the ABLUE of Qξ for the location-scale exponential and double exponential distributions. As a further application of the exponential results, we discuss the asymptotically best optimal spacings for the location-scale logistic distribution.en_US
