Hello, I was interested in trying to write an R script to calculate a UCL for a lognormal distribution using the Chebyshev Inequality MVUE Approach (based on EPAs guidance found in http://www.epa.gov/oswer/riskassessment/pdf/ucl.pdf). This looks like it should be straight forward, but I am need to calculate an MVUE for the population mean and an MVUE for the population variance, which requires a value (g_n) from a table A7, found in Aitchison and Brown (1969): The lognormal distribution. I have looked across the RSiteSearch and can not seem to find a function that will give me g_n or the MVUE for mean and variance of lognormal distribution.
Is there an R function that will give me g_n or will calculate an MVUE for the population mean and variance for the lognormal distribution? VR Jim James T.
