Abstract
Recently Gupta et al. (1998) introduced a new distribution, called the
exponentiated Pareto distribution. In this paper, we consider the maximum
likelihood estimation of the different parameters of an exponentiated Pareto
distribution. We also mainly consider five other estimation procedures and
compare their performances through numerical simulations.
