Parameter estimation for the Exponentiated Weibull distribution: Comparative study


Author(s): Suzanne A Allam, Soha M Othman, Hesham M Reyad and Ahmed M Hashish

Abstract: For the estimation of probability distribution parameters, Haktanir (1997) [4] introduced the method of self-determined probability weighted moments as a refinement on the original method of probability weighted moments defined by Greenwood et al (1979) [2]. In this study, simulation experiments were conducted to investigate the performance of the self- determined probability weighted moments method versus the performances of the methods of maximum likelihood and moments in estimating the parameters of the Exponentiated Weibull distribution.
