This paper develops mathematical and computational methoda for fitting, by the method of maximum likelihbod (m), the two-parameter, right-truncated Weibull dietribution (RTWD) to life-teat or survival data. &me important statistical properties of the RTWD are derived and ML estimating equations for
The lognormal model can be fitted to survival data using a stable linear algorithm. When tested on 800 sets of mathematically generated data, this method proved more stable and efficient than the iterative method of maximum likelihood, which requires initial estimates of model parameters and failed
