Abstract
- Exponential and Weibull models are commonly used models with former being the special case of the latter. In their most general forms, the exponential model involves both threshold and scale parameters whereas the Weibull model involves threshold, scale and shape parameters. The article analyzes the two models in a Bayesian framework and examines the feasibility of generality versus particularity in the sense that it tests for the possibility of (not) having a threshold and/or a shape parameter in the data arising from exponential (Weibull) model. The results are illustrated based on both complete and censored datasets from the models. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
