Abstract: | Recently a new distribution, named as generalized exponential distribution has been introduced and studied quite extensively by the authors. Generalized exponential distribution can be used as an alternative to gamma or Weibull distribution in many situations. In a companion paper, the authors considered the maximum likelihood estimation of the different parameters of a generalized exponential distribution and discussed some of the testing of hypothesis problems. In this paper we mainly consider five other estimation procedures and compare their performances through numerical simulations. |
