All these methods, parametric or non-parametric, require much closer collaboration between medical investigators and statisticians.

The parametric methods always work out of their conditions of use.

This corollary is used in the parametric method for power spectrum estimation.

Generally speaking parametric methods make more assumptions than non-parametric methods.

If those extra assumptions are correct, parametric methods can produce more accurate and precise estimates.

However, if assumptions are incorrect, parametric methods can be very misleading.

Additionally time series analysis techniques may be divided into parametric and non-parametric methods.

Techniques for spectrum estimation can generally be divided into parametric and non-parametric methods.

Maximum likelihood is a parametric statistical method, in that it employs an explicit model of character evolution.

Environment resulting from the application of parametric methods or parametric-based programs.
