Inference for the Rayleigh Distribution Based on Progressive Type-II Fuzzy Censored Data
نویسندگان
چکیده
Classical statistical analysis of the Rayleigh distribution deals with precise information. However, in real world situations, experimental performance results cannot always be recorded or measured precisely, but each observable event may only be identified with a fuzzy subset of the sample space. Therefore, the conventional procedures used for estimating the Rayleigh distribution parameter will need to be adapted to the new situation. This article discusses different estimation methods for the parameters of the Rayleigh distribution on the basis of a progressively type-II censoring scheme when the available observations are described by means of fuzzy information. They include the maximum likelihood estimation, highest posterior density estimation and method of moments. The estimation procedures are discussed in detail and compared via Monte Carlo simulations in terms of their average biases and mean squared errors. Finally, one real data set is analyzed for illustrative purposes.

Inference for a Skew Normal Distribution Based on Progressively Type-II Censored Samples
In many industrial experiments involving lifetimes of machines or units, experiments have to be terminated early or the number of experiments must be limited due to a variety of circumstances (e.g. when expensive, etc.) the samples that arise from such experiments are called censored data. Cohen (1991) was one of the earliest to study a more general censoring scheme called progressive censor...
متن کاملInference for the Type-II Generalized Logistic Distribution with Progressive Hybrid Censoring
This article presents the analysis of the Type-II hybrid progressively censored data when the lifetime distributions of the items follow Type-II generalized logistic distribution. Maximum likelihood estimators (MLEs) are investigated for estimating the location and scale parameters. It is observed that the MLEs can not be obtained in explicit forms. We provide the approximate maximum likelihood...
متن کاملSome Results Based on Entropy Properties of Progressive Type-II Censored Data
In many life-testing and reliability studies, the experimenter might not always obtain complete information on failure times for all experimental units. One of the most common censoring schemes is progressive type-II censoring. The aim of this paper is characterizing the parent distributions based on Shannon entropy of progressive type-II censored order statistics. It is shown that the equality...

In this paper, we discuss the statistical inference on the unknown parameters and reliability function of type-II extreme value (EVII) distribution when the observed data are progressively type-II censored. By applying EM algorithm, we obtain maximum likelihood estimates (MLEs). We also suggest approximate maximum likelihood estimators (AMLEs), which have explicit expressions. We provide Bayes ...

In this paper, based on the progressive type II right censored data, we consider estimates of MLE and AMLE of scale and shape parameters of weibull distribution. Also a new type of parameter estimation, named inverse estimation, is introdued for both shape and scale parameters of weibull distribution which is used from order statistics properties in it. We use simulations and study the biases a...
