Nonlinear Least Squares Estimation of the Shifted Gompertz Distribution
The focus of this paper is the existence of the best nonlinear least squares estimate for the shifted Gompertz distribution. As a main result, two theorems on the existence of the least squares estimate are obtained, as well as their generalization in the lp norm (1 ≤ p <∞). 2010 Mathematics Subject Classifications: 65D10, 65C20, 62J02
متن کاملEstimation of parameters of the Gompertz distribution using the least squares method
The Gompertz distribution has been used to describe human mortality and establish actuarial tables. Recently, this distribution has been again studied by some authors. The maximum likelihood estimates for the parameters of the Gompertz distribution has been discussed by Garg et al. [J. R. Statist. Soc. C 19 (1970) 152]. The purpose of this paper is to propose unweighted and weighted least squar...
متن کاملEstimating Variances in Weighted Least-Squares Estimation of Distributional Parameters
Abstract: Many estimation methods have been proposed for the parameters of statistical distribution. The least squares estimation method, based on a regression model or probability plot, is frequently used by practitioners since its implementation procedure is extremely simple in complete and censoring data cases. However, in the procedure, heteroscedasticity is present in the used regression m...
متن کاملNonlinear Least-squares Estimation
The paper uses empirical process techniques to study the asymptotics of the least-squares estimator for the fitting of a nonlinear regression function. By combining and extending ideas of Wu and Van de Geer, it establishes new consistency and central limit theorems that hold under only second moment assumptions on the errors. An application to a delicate example of Wu’s illustrates the use of t...
متن کاملNonlinear weighted least squares fitting Bass diffusion model
The Bass model is one of the most well-known and widely used first-purchase diffusion models in marketing research. The main reason for this is that it finds its origin in a formal theory of product diffusion, and that the model parameters have an easy interpretation in terms of innovation and imitation. Namely, Bass classified adopters (first-time buyers) into two groups: innovators and imitat...
