The Good–Toulmin (GT) estimator was developed by Good and Toulmin in 1953. [4] The estimate of the unseen species based on the Good–Toulmin estimator is given by U GT ≜ U GT ( X n , t ) ≜ ∑ i = 1 ∞ ( − t ) i + 1 φ i . {\displaystyle U^{\text{GT}}\triangleq U^{\text{GT}}(X^{n},t)\triangleq \sum _{i=1}^{\infty }(-t)^{i+1}\varphi _{i}.}
