Bayesian estimation of parameters of inverse Weibull distribution

Abstract

The present paper describes the Bayes estimators of parameters of inverse Weibull distribution for complete, type I and type II censored samples under general entropy and squared error loss functions. The proposed estimators have been compared on the basis of their simulated risks (average loss over sample space). A real-life data set is used to illustrate the results. © 2013 Copyright Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.
