Fitting the Three-parameter Weibull Distribution by using Greedy Randomized Adaptive Search Procedure
The Weibull distribution is widely employed in several areas of engineering because it is an extremely flexible distribution with different shapes. Moreover, it can include characteristics of several other distributions. However, successful usage of Weibull distribution depends on estimation accuracy for three parameters of scale, shape and location. This issue shifts the attentions to the requ...
متن کاملLeast squares fitting the three - parameter inverse Weibull density ∗
The inverse Weibull model was developed by Erto [10]. In practice, the unknown parameters of the appropriate inverse Weibull density are not known and must be estimated from a random sample. Estimation of its parameters has been approached in the literature by various techniques, because a standard maximum likelihood estimate does not exist. To estimate the unknown parameters of the three-param...
متن کاملOn nonlinear weighted least squares fitting of the three-parameter inverse Weibull distribution∗
In this paper we consider nonlinear least squares fitting of the three-parameter inverse Weibull distribution to the given data (wi, ti, yi), i = 1, . . . , n, n ≥ 3. As the main result, we show that the least squares estimate exists provided that the data satisfy just the following two natural conditions: (i) 0 < t1 < t2 < . . . < tn and (ii) 0 < y1 < y2 < . . . < yn < 1. To this end, an illus...
متن کاملThe method of three-parameter Weibull distribution estimation
Abstract. In this paper we develop Maximum Likelihood (ML) and Improved Analytical (IA) numerical algorithms to estimate parameters of the Weibull distribution, namely, location, scale and shape parameters, using order statistics of a noncensored sample. Since ML method leads to multiextremal numerical problem we establish conditions to localize extremes of the ML function, which enables us to ...
متن کاملThree-parameter Kappa distribution and its fitting to the whole monthly rainfall data of Abali station in Tehran province
Kappa distribution is a positively skewed distribution which is used in analyzing precipitation, wind speed and streamflow data. In this paper, first a three-parameter Kappa distribution that introduced by Park et al. (2009) is studied and then four different methods of estimation including Moments, L-Moments, Maximum Likelihood and Maximum Product Spacing Method are presented in order to estim...
