Two step estimation in burr type X distribution


Author(s): MS Ravikumar and RRL Kantam

Abstract: The two parameter Burr type X distribution is considered. The well known classical method – maximum likelihood (ML) estimation of both the parameters is attempted resulting in iterative solutions of the parameters. Hence, we propose reasonably efficient and computationally simple/analytical, estimation procedure called two-step estimation and present a comparative study of the efficiency of the proposed procedure in relation to the ML method.
