Dagum distribution is a statistical distribution used closely for fitting income and wealth distributions. This distribution has wide application in fields like reliability theory survival analysis, actuarial sciences, and meteorological data. In this article, we obtained Bayes estimators for the shape parameter of Dagum distribution using approximation techniques like normal and T-K approximations. Moreover different informative priors have been considered and a simulation study and three real data sets have been considered to study the efficiency of obtained results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
