Contributed to the Ouranosinc/xclim repository by developing the Maximum Product of Spacings (MSE) fitting method for statistical distributions, expanding the library’s modeling capabilities. Integrated MSE into the existing fit workflow in Python, added an alias for backward compatibility, and updated both documentation and changelogs to reflect these enhancements. Improved the reliability of statistical fitting by introducing repeatable and robust tests, refining test setup, and validating parameter bounds. Additionally, addressed test flakiness in Loess smoothing by replacing random data with fixed datasets, ensuring deterministic behavior when handling NaNs. Focused on code formatting, scientific computing, and software testing to enhance maintainability.
