Abstract

The present paper is concerned with using  Bayesian and E-Bayesian method of estimation to find estimates for the shape parameter of Exponentiated Inverted Weibull distribution. These estimators are derived by using different loss functions. In this paper, Bayesian estimates are derived by using informative prior.
