In classical statistics, the parameter of interest is estimated based on sample information and using natural estimators such as maximum likelihood estimators. In Bayesian statistics, the Bayesian estimators are constructed based on prior knowledge and combining with it sample information. But, in some situations, the researcher has information about the unknown parameter as a guess. Bayesian shrinkage estimators can be constructed by Combining this non-sample information with sample information together with the prior knowledge, which is in the area of semi-classical statistics. In this paper, we introduce a class of Bayesian shrinkage estimators for the Weibull scale parameter as a generalization of the estimator at hand and consider the bias and risk of them under LINEX loss function. Then, the proposed estimators are compared using a real data set.
