We show that, the new estimator has also closed-form expression, is positive, and can be computed for n > 2. Moreover, the corrective approach returns better estimates when compared with the former ones.195-199engBias correctionImprove estimatorsTwo-parameter gamma distributionA Note on Bias of Closed-Form Estimators for the Gamma Distribution Derived From Likelihood EquationsArtigo10.1080/00031305.2018.1513376WOS:000472918300011Acesso aberto
