Abstract
This paper provides a Bayesian framework for estimating parameters of the length-biased Nakagami (LBN) distribution. We derive the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) and Bayesian estimators under three different loss functions: the squared error loss function, the quadratic loss function, and the precautionary loss function. A simulation study is conducted to compare the performance of three different loss functions and the MLE with a fixed shape parameter. Moreover, a real data application illustrates the performance of these estimators. © 2025, World Scientific and Engineering Academy and Society. All rights reserved.
