Abstract
Some simple point estimators are proposed for the three-parameter Weibull distribution. Both complete and type II censored sampling are considered. The biases and variances of these estimators are studied by Monte Carlo simulation. Percentage points for the estimator of the shape parameter are also obtained by Monte Carlo simulation, which enables interval estimation and tests of hypotheses to be carried out for the shape parameter.Keywords
