Maximum likelihood estimation for the parameters in the three-parameter Weibull distribution needs an initial value in the iteration scheme for likelihood equations. In certain cases, maximum likelihood estimation can break down for the three-parameter Weibull model, as no local maximum of the likel
The simultaneous estimation of individual growth curvea and a mean gtowth curve is accomplished by weighted least squares. A polynomial curve is fitted for each individual and the polynomial parameters are linear functions of parameters corresponding to covariatee. A simple, computationally efficien
