In this report, we explore the data selection leading to a family of estimators maximizing a centrality. The family allows a nice properties leading to accurate and robust probability density function fitting according to some criteria we define. We establish a link between the centrality estimator and the maximum likelihood, showing that the latter is a particular case. Therefore, a new probability interpretation of Fisher maximum likelihood is provided. We will introduce and study two specific centralities that we have named H\"older and Lehmer estimators. A numerical simulation is provided showing the effectiveness of the proposed families of estimators opening the door to development of new concepts and algorithms in machine learning, data mining, statistics, and data analysis.
