On the Asymptotic Normality of the Method of Moments Estimators for the Birnbaum–Saunders Distribution with a New Parametrization
This study investigates the asymptotic properties of method-of-moments estimators for the Birnbaum–Saunders distribution under a newly proposed parametrization. Theoretical derivations establish the asymptotic normality of these estimators, supported by explicit expressions for the mean vector and v...

| Summary: | This study investigates the asymptotic properties of method-of-moments estimators for the Birnbaum–Saunders distribution under a newly proposed parametrization. Theoretical derivations establish the asymptotic normality of these estimators, supported by explicit expressions for the mean vector and variance–covariance matrix. Simulation studies validate these results across various sample sizes and parameter values. A practical application is demonstrated through modeling cumulative rainfall data from northeastern Thailand, highlighting the distribution’s suitability for extreme weather prediction. |
