Maximum likelihood principle and I -divergence: discrete time observations

Jiří Michálek (1998)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

The paper investigates the relation between maximum likelihood and minimum I -divergence estimates of unknown parameters and studies the asymptotic behaviour of the likelihood ratio maximum. Observations are assumed to be done in the discrete time.

Bayesian estimation of the 3-parameter inverse Gaussian distribution.

Mohamed Mahmoud (1991)

Trabajos de Estadística

Similarity:

The three-parameter inverse Gaussian distribution is used as an alternative model for the three parameter lognormal, gamma and Weibull distributions for reliability problems. In this paper Bayes estimates of the parameters and reliability function of a three parameter inverse Gaussian distribution are obtained. Posterior variance estimates are compared with the variance of their maximum likelihood counterparts. Numerical examples are given.
