Size-Biased Generalized Negative Binomial Distribution, Khurshid Ahmad Mir
Size-Biased Generalized Negative Binomial Distribution, Khurshid Ahmad Mir
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
A size biased generalized negative binomial distribution (SBGNBD) is defined and a recurrence relationship for the moments of SBGNBD is established. The Bayes’ estimator for a parametric function of one parameter when two other parameters of a known size-biased generalized negative binomial distribution is derived. Prior information on one parameter is given by a beta distribution and the parameters in the prior distribution are assigned by computer using Monte Carlo and R-software.
