ABSTRACT
The Generalized Logarithmic Series Distribution (GLSD) adds an extra parameter to the usual
logarithmic series distribution and was introduced by Jain and Gupta (1973). This distribution
has found applications in various fields. The estimation of parameters of generalized logarithmic
series distribution was studied by the methods of maximum likelihood, moments, minimum chi
square and weighted discrepancies. The GLSD was fitted to counts of red mites on apple leaves
and it was observed that all the estimation techniques perform well in estimating the parameters
of generalized logarithmic series distribution but with varying degree of non-significance.
Keyword: GLSD, Estimation, Parameters.
