Abstract

This paper focuses on the likelihood based confidence intervals for two inverse gaussian distributions when the parameter of interest is common scale parameter. Confidence intervals based on signed loglikelihood ratio statistic and modified signed loglikelihood ratio statistics will be compared in small sample through an illustrative simulation study.
