Bayesian analysis of three parameter singular Marshall-Olkin bivariate Pareto distribution

Abstract

This paper provides bayesian analysis of singular Marshall-Olkin bivariate Pareto distribution. We consider three parameter singular Marshall-Olkin bivariate Pareto distribution. We consider two types of prior - reference prior and gamma prior. Bayes estimate of the parameters are calculated based on slice cum gibbs sampler and Lindley approximation. Credible interval is also provided for all methods and all prior distributions. A data analysis is kept for illustrative purpose.
