'''estimate distribution parameters by various methods
method of moments or matching quantiles, and Maximum Likelihood estimation
based on binned data and Maximum Product-of-Spacings

Warning: I'm still finding cut-and-paste and refactoring errors, e.g.
    hardcoded variables from outer scope in functions
    some results don't seem to make sense for Pareto case,
    looks better now after correcting some name errors

initially loosely based on a paper and blog for quantile matching
  by John D. Cook
  formula for gamma quantile (ppf) matching by him (from paper)
  http://www.codeproject.com/KB/recipes/ParameterPercentile.aspx
  http://www.johndcook.com/blog/2010/01/31/parameters-from-percentiles/
  this is what I actually used (in parts):
  http://www.bepress.com/mdandersonbiostat/paper55/

quantile based estimator
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
only special cases for number or parameters so far
Is there a literature for GMM estimation of distribution parameters? check
    found one: Wu/Perloff 2007


binned estimator
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* I added this also
* use it for chisquare tests with estimation distribution parameters
* move this to distribution_extras (next to gof tests powerdiscrepancy and
  continuous) or add to distribution_patch


example: t-distribution
* works with quantiles if they contain tail quantiles
* results with momentcondquant don't look as good as mle estimate

TODOs
* rearange and make sure I don't use module globals (as I did initially) DONE
  make two version exactly identified method of moments with fsolve
  and GMM (?) version with fmin
  and maybe the special cases of JD Cook
  update: maybe exact (MM) version is not so interesting compared to GMM
* add semifrozen version of moment and quantile based estimators,
  e.g. for beta (both loc and scale fixed), or gamma (loc fixed)
* add beta example to the semifrozen MLE, fitfr, code
  -> added method of moment estimator to _fitstart for beta
* start a list of how well different estimators, especially current mle work
  for the different distributions
* need general GMM code (with optimal weights ?), looks like a good example
  for it
* get example for binned data estimation, mailing list a while ago
* any idea when these are better than mle ?
* check language: I use quantile to mean the value of the random variable, not
  quantile between 0 and 1.
* for GMM: move moment conditions to separate function, so that they can be
  used for further analysis, e.g. covariance matrix of parameter estimates
* question: Are GMM properties different for matching quantiles with cdf or
  ppf? Estimate should be the same, but derivatives of moment conditions
  differ.
* add maximum spacings estimator, Wikipedia, Per Brodtkorb -> basic version Done
* add parameter estimation based on empirical characteristic function
  (Carrasco/Florens), especially for stable distribution
* provide a model class based on estimating all distributions, and collect
  all distribution specific information
