Original abstract

The paper is concerned with the solution to the statistical problem of finding discrete probability distributions by means of the Pearson test goodness of fit subject to conditions given by estimates of their general moments from observed relative frequencies. A Pearson quasi-norm is defined whose minimization is used for the estimates of these distributions and their basic properties are described. An example is used to illustrate the results.
