Recurrence Relations for Moments of Generalized Order Statistics for Inverse Weibull Distribution and Some Characterizations

Abstract

We present recurrence relations for single, inverse, product and ratio moments of Generalized Order Statistics when sample is available from an Inverse Weibull Distribution. These relations enable computation of higher order moments using corresponding lower order moments. Some Characterizations of the distribution are also given in terms of conditional moments.
