The comparison of Bayes estimators was made through a Monte Carlo simulation study on the performance of these estimators with respect to the mean square error MSE as a measure of performance. The results of comparison showed that Bayes estimators of the shape parameter under the GELF with proper choice of γ, is a suitable alternative to the QLF when the loss is asymmetric in nature.

Dielectric constant increases with increasing the wool fiber percentage.}, keywords = {}, url = {https://etj.uotechnology.edu.iq/article_102684.html}, eprint = {https://etj.uotechnology.edu.iq/article_102684_00083f87198fbc51c044b687cacb4267.pdf} }
