Bayesian inference for the Weibull distribution

Creator:

Bogdanoff, David Allen

Abstract:

Bayesian inferential methods for the two parameter Weibull (and extreme-value distribution) are presented in a life-testing context. A practical method of calculating posterior distributions of the two parameters and a large class of functions of the parameters is presented. The emphasis is for the situation where the sample information is...
