Parameters of the IWL are estimated by the method of maximum likelihood (ML), least squares (LS), weighted least squares (WLS), Cram´er-von Mises (CVM) and Anderson Darling (AD). The performances of the estimators are compared using Monte Carlo simulation study via bias, mean square error and deficiency (Def) criteria. Finally, a real data set is analyzed for illustrative purposes.enParameter estimation, Bias, efficiency, Monte Calo simulation, Inverse weighted Lindley distributionArticle702108510981303-5991
