Mathematical Justification

The main contribution of this work is to develop a linear exponential loss function (LINEX) to estimate the scale parameter and reliability function of the inverse Weibull distribution (IWD) based on lower record values. We do this by merging a weight into LINEX to produce a new loss function called weighted linear exponential loss function (WLINEX). We then use WLINEX to derive the scale parameter and reliability function of the IWD. Subsequently, we discuss the balanced loss functions for three different types of loss function, which include squared error (SE), LINEX, and WLINEX. The majority of previous scholars determined the weighted balanced coefficients without mathematical justification. One of the main contributions of this work is to utilize nonlinear programming to obtain the optimal values of the weighted coefficients for balanced squared error (BSE), balanced linear exponential (BLINEX), and balanced weighted linear exponential (BWLINEX) loss functions. Furthermore, to examine the performance of the proposed methods—WLINEX and BWLINEX—we conduct a Monte Carlo simulation. The comparison is between the proposed methods and other methods including maximum likelihood estimation, SE loss function, LINEX, BSE, and BLINEX. The results of simulation show that the proposed models BWLINEX and WLINEX in this work have the best performance in estimating scale parameter and reliability, respectively, according to the smallest values of mean SE. This result means that the proposed approach is promising and can be applied in a real environment.

In this paper, we developed linear exponential (LINEX) loss function by emerging weights to produce weighted linear exponential (WLINEX) loss function. Then we utilized WLINEX to derive scale parameter and reliability function of the Weibull distribution based on record values when the shape parameter is known. After, we estimated scale parameter and reliability function of Weibull distribution by using maximum likelihood (ML) estimation and by several Bayes estimations.  The Bayes estimates were obtained with respect to symmetric loss function (squared error loss (SEL)), asymmetric loss function (LINEX) and asymmetric loss function (WLINEX). The ML and the different Bayes estimates are compared via a Monte Carlo simulation study. The result of simulation mentioned that the proposed WLINEX loss function is promising and can be used in real environment especially at the case of underestimate where it revealed better performance than LINEX loss function for estimating scale parameter.

This paper is concerned with estimating the parameter of Rayleigh distribution (special case of two parameters Weibull distribution) by adopting Bayesian approach under squared error (SE), LINEX, MLINEX loss function. The performances of the obtained estimators for different types of loss functions are then compared. Better result is found in Bayesian approach under MLINEX loss function. Bayes risk of the estimators are also computed and presented in graphs.

Teimouri and Nadarajah [Statist. Methodol.13 (2013) 12–24] considered bias corrected maximum likelihood estimation of the Weibull distribution based on upper record values. Here, we propose an estimator for the Weibull shape parameter based on consecutive upper records. It is shown by simulations that the proposed estimator has less bias and less mean squared error than an estimator due to Soliman et al. [Comput. Statist. Data Anal.51 (2006) 2065–2077] based on all upper records. Also, the proposed estimator can be considered as a good competitor for the maximum likelihood estimator of the shape parameter based on complete data. This is proved by simulations and using a real dataset.

This paper proposes different methods of estimating the scale parameter in the inverse Weibull distribution (IWD). Specifically, the maximum likelihood estimator of the scale parameter in IWD is introduced. We then derived the Bayes estimators for the scale parameter in IWD by considering quasi, gamma, and uniform priors distributions under the square error, entropy, and precautionary loss functions. Finally, the different proposed estimators have been compared by the extensive simulation studies in corresponding the mean square errors and the evolution of risk functions.

Inverse Weibull Distribution

AbstractIn this paper we consider a generalization of a log-transformed version of the inverse Weibull distribution. Several theoretical properties of the distribution are studied in detail including expressions for its probability density function, reliability function, hazard rate function, quantile function, characteristic function, raw moments, percentile measures, entropy measures, median, mode etc. Certain structural properties of the distribution along with expressions for reliability measures as well as the distribution and moments of order statistics are obtained. Also we discuss the maximum likelihood estimation of the parameters of the proposed distribution and illustrate the usefulness of the model through real life examples. In addition, the asymptotic behaviour of the maximum likelihood estimators are examined with the help of simulated data sets.

In the current study, we have been derived some Basyian estimators for the parameter and relia-bility function of the inverse Rayleigh distribution under Generalized squared error loss function. In order to get the best understanding of the behavior of Bayesian analysis, we consider non-informative prior for the scale parameter using Jefferys prior Information as well as informative prior density represented by Gamma distribution. Monte-Carlo simulation have been employed to compare the behavior of different estimates for the scale parameter and reliability function of in-verse Rayleigh distribution based on mean squared errors and Integrated mean squared errors, respectively. In the current study, we observed that more occurrence of Bayesian estimate using Generalized squared error loss function using Gamma prior is better than other estimates for all cases

This paper develops a Bayesian analysis of the scale parameter in the Weibull distribution with a scale parameter  θ  and shape parameter  β (known). For the prior distribution of the parameter involved, inverted Gamma distribution has been examined. Bayes estimates of the scale parameter, θ  , relative to LINEX loss function are obtained. Comparisons in terms of risk functions of those under LINEX loss and squared error loss functions with their respective alternate estimators, viz: Uniformly Minimum Variance Unbiased Estimator (U.M.V.U.E) and Bayes estimators relative to squared error loss function are made. It is found that Bayes estimators relative to squared error loss function dominate the alternative estimators in terms of risk function.
