In this article, we considered the statistical inference for the unknown parameters of exponentiated exponential distribution based on a generalized progressive hybrid censored sample under classical paradigm. We have obtained maximum likelihood estimators of the unknown parameters and confidence intervals utilizing asymptotic theory. Entropy measures, such as Shannon entropy and Awad sub-entropy, have been obtained to measure loss of information owing to censoring. Further, the expected total time of the test and expected number of failures, which are useful during the execution of an experiment, also have been computed. The performance of the estimators have been discussed based on mean squared errors. Moreover, the effect of choice of parameters, termination time T, and m on the ETTT and ETNFs also have been observed. For illustrating the proposed methodology, a real data set is considered.

This paper addresses the estimation of the unknown parameters of the alphapower exponential distribution (Mahdavi and Kundu, 2017) using nine frequentist estimation methods. We discuss the nite sample properties of the parameterestimates of the alpha power exponential distribution via Monte Carlo simulations. The potentiality of the distribution is analyzed by means of two real datasets from the elds of engineering and medicine.

In this paper, estimation of parameters of Kumaraswamy-exponential distribution with shape parameters α and β is considered based on a progressively type-II censored sample with binomial removals. Together with the unknown parameters, the removal probability p is also estimated. Bayes estimators are obtained using different loss functions such as squared error, LINEX loss function and entropy loss function. All Bayesian estimates are compared with the corresponding maximum likelihood estimates numerically in terms of their bias and mean square error values and found that Bayes estimators perform better than MLE’s for β and p and MLEs perform better than Bayes estimators for α. A real data set is also used for illustration.

The generalized inverted exponential distribution is introduced as a lifetime model with good statistical properties. This paper, the estimation of the probability density function and the cumulative distribution function of with five different estimation methods: uniformly minimum variance unbiased(UMVU), maximum likelihood(ML), least squares(LS), weighted least squares (WLS) and percentile(PC) estimators are considered. The performance of these estimation procedures, based on the mean squared error (MSE) by numerical simulations are compared. Simulation studies express that the UMVU estimator performs better than others and when the sample size is large enough the ML and UMVU estimators are almost equivalent and efficient than LS, WLS and PC. Finally, the result using a real data set are analyzed.

This article presents a new method for generating distributions. This method combines two techniques—the transformed—transformer and alpha power transformation approaches—allowing for tremendous flexibility in the resulting distributions. The new approach is applied to introduce the alpha power Weibull—exponential distribution. The density of this distribution can take asymmetric and near-symmetric shapes. Various asymmetric shapes, such as decreasing, increasing, L-shaped, near-symmetrical, and right-skewed shapes, are observed for the related failure rate function, making it more tractable for many modeling applications. Some significant mathematical features of the suggested distribution are determined. Estimates of the unknown parameters of the proposed distribution are obtained using the maximum likelihood method. Furthermore, some numerical studies were carried out, in order to evaluate the estimation performance. Three practical datasets are considered to analyze the usefulness and flexibility of the introduced distribution. The proposed alpha power Weibull–exponential distribution can outperform other well-known distributions, showing its great adaptability in the context of real data analysis.

For the purpose of improving the statistical efficiency of estimators in life-testing experiments, generalized Type-I hybrid censoring has lately been implemented by guaranteeing that experiments only terminate after a certain number of failures appear. With the wide applications of bathtub-shaped distribution in engineering areas and the recently introduced generalized Type-I hybrid censoring scheme, considering that there is no work coalescing this certain type of censoring model with a bathtub-shaped distribution, we consider the parameter inference under generalized Type-I hybrid censoring. First, estimations of the unknown scale parameter and the reliability function are obtained under the Bayesian method based on LINEX and squared error loss functions with a conjugate gamma prior. The comparison of estimations under the E-Bayesian method for different prior distributions and loss functions is analyzed. Additionally, Bayesian and E-Bayesian estimations with two unknown parameters are introduced. Furthermore, to verify the robustness of the estimations above, the Monte Carlo method is introduced for the simulation study. Finally, the application of the discussed inference in practice is illustrated by analyzing a real data set.

Abstract The main aim of this paper is to introduce a new class of continuous generalized exponential distributions, both for the univariate and bivariate cases. This new class of distributions contains some newly developed distributions as special cases, such as the univariate and also bivariate geometric generalized exponential distribution and the exponential-discrete generalized exponential distribution. Several properties of the proposed univariate and bivariate distributions, and their physical interpretations, are investigated. The univariate distribution has four parameters, whereas the bivariate distribution has five parameters. We propose to use an EM algorithm to estimate the unknown parameters. According to extensive simulation studies, we see that the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, and the performance is quite satisfactory. A bivariate data set is analyzed and it is observed that the proposed models and the EM algorithm work quite well in practice.

The two-parameter of exponentiated Gumbel distribution is an important lifetime distribution in survival analysis. This paper investigates the estimation of the parameters of this distribution by using lower records values. The maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) procedure of the parameters is considered, and the Fisher information matrix of the unknown parameters is used to construct asymptotic confidence intervals. Bayes estimator of the parameters and the corresponding credible intervals are obtained by using the Gibbs sampling technique. Two real data set is provided to illustrate the proposed methods.

This paper is concerned with the estimation of the Weibull generalized exponential distribution (WGED) parameters based on the adaptive Type-II progressive (ATIIP) censored sample. Maximum likelihood estimation (MLE), maximum product spacing (MPS), and Bayesian estimation based on Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods have been determined to find the best estimation method. The Monte Carlo simulation is used to compare the three methods of estimation based on the ATIIP-censored sample, and also, we made a bootstrap confidence interval estimation. We will analyze data related to the distribution about single carbon fiber and electrical data as real data cases to show how the schemes work in practice.

In this paper, the Bayesian and non-Bayesian estimation of a two-parameter Weibull lifetime model in presence of progressive first-failure censored data with binomial random removals are considered. Based on the s-normal approximation to the asymptotic distribution of maximum likelihood estimators, two-sided approximate confidence intervals for the unknown parameters are constructed. Using gamma conjugate priors, several Bayes estimates and associated credible intervals are obtained relative to the squared error loss function. Proposed estimators cannot be expressed in closed forms and can be evaluated numerically by some suitable iterative procedure. A Bayesian approach is developed using Markov chain Monte Carlo techniques to generate samples from the posterior distributions and in turn computing the Bayes estimates and associated credible intervals. To analyze the performance of the proposed estimators, a Monte Carlo simulation study is conducted. Finally, a real data set is discussed for illustration purposes.
