The Least Square and the Weighted Least Square Methods for Estimating the Weibull Distribution Parameters - A Comparative Study

In this paper we study the performance of the least square method and the weighted least square method for estimating the Weibull distribution parameters. In engineering practice these methods are commonly used due to their simplicity. The estimates of the parameters can be calculated easily by the...
