Recently Asimit et. al used an EM algorithm to estimate Marshall-Olkin bivariate Pareto distribution. The distribution has seven parameters. We describe few alternative approaches of EM algorithm. A numerical simulation is performed to verify the performance of different proposed algorithms. A real-life data analysis is also shown for illustrative purposes.
