Birnbaum–Saunders distribution based on Laplace kernel and some properties and inferential issues

Zhu, Xiaojun; Balakrishnan, N. - In: Statistics & Probability Letters 101 (2015) C, pp. 1-10

For the Birnbaum–Saunders distribution based on Laplace kernel, we discuss the shape characteristics of density and hazard functions. We show the existence and uniqueness of maximum likelihood estimates. Simple modified moment estimators are proposed and compared with maximum likelihood estimates.
