    Abstract

    In this paper, based on record data from the two-parameter generalized Pareto distribution, Bayes estimates for the two unknown parameters are obtained. under the squared error loss (SEL) and linear-exponential (LINEX) loss functions. The behavior of future records based on observing some records is also addressed. An artificial and a real data set have been analyzed for illustrative purposes.
