Abstract

This paper concerns with the estimation of parameters for the Exponentiated Lomax Distribution ELD. Different estimation methods such as maximum likelihood, quasi-likelihood, Bayesian and quasi-Bayesian are used to evaluate parameters. Numerical study is discussed to illustrate the optimal procedure using MATHCAD program (2001). A comparison between the four estimation methods will be performed.
