On the Estimating Burr XII Distribution Parameters

摘要

Burr XII distribution plays an important role in reliability modeling, risk analyzing and process capability estimation. However, estimating two parameters of the Burr XII distribution, i.e., c and k, is a complicated task and using conventional methods is not straightforward. In this paper a neural network to estimate Burr XII parameters is presented. The inputs of proposed neural network are skewness and kurtosis. The performance of proposed methods is evaluated in different simulation examples.
