Estimation of the Inverse Gaussian Distribution Function

Raj S. Chhikara, J. Leroy Folks · Journal of the American Statistical Association · 1974

Minimum variance unbiased estimates of the inverse Gaussian distribution function for all possible cases are given. A direct relationship is established between its density function and the normal density function, which throws more light on its salient features and possibly on its application in statistical inference. It is shown that the estimates are very similar in nature to those of the normal distribution and can be evaluated from the normal and Student's t distribution tables.
