Abstract
A stochastic diffusion process based on a generalization of the Weibull curve, depending on a parametric function and initial values, is considered. One particular case is the hyperbolastic curve of type III, successfully applied in growth dynamics. We also proposed a basic methodology to address the issue related with the estimation of the parameters of the generic function from a discrete sampling of observations.
