The location-scale mixture exponential power distribution: a Bayesian and maximum likelihood approach. (English) Zbl 1322.62077

J. Appl. Math. 2012, Article ID 978282, 14 p. (2012).
Summary: We introduce an alternative skew-slash distribution by using the scale mixture of the exponential power distribution. We derive the properties of this distribution and estimate its parameter by maximum likelihood and Bayesian methods. By a simulation study we compute the mentioned estimators and their mean square errors, and we provide an example on real data to demonstrate the modeling strength of the new distribution.
