Abstract

In this paper, we investigate some inferential properties of the upper record Lomax distribution. Also, we will estimate the upper record of the Lomax distribution parameters using methods, Moment (MME), Maximum Likelihood (MLE), Kullback-Leibler Divergence of the Survival function (DLS) and Baysian. Finally, we will compare these methods using the Monte Carlo simulation.
