  • Abstract
    The authors obtain Bayes estimates of the parameters and reliability function of a 3-parameter Weibull distribution and compare posterior standard-deviation estimates with the corresponding asymptotic standard-deviation estimates of their maximum likelihood counterparts. Numerical examples are given
