摘要
The three-parameter inverse Gaussian distribution is defined and moment estimators and maximum likelihood estimators are ob-tained. The moment estimators are found in closed form and their asymptotic normality is proven. A sufficient condition is provided for the existence of the maximum likelihood estimators. © 1979, Taylor & Francis Group, LLC. All rights reserved.
