[ 1 ] - Bayes Estimation for a Simple Step-stress Model with Type-I Censored Data from the Geometric Distribution

This paper focuses on a Bayes inference model for a simple step-stress life test using Type-I censored sample in a discrete set-up. Assuming the failure times at each stress level are geometrically distributed, the Bayes estimation problem of the parameters of interest is investigated in the both of point and interval approaches. To derive the Bayesian point estimators, some various balanced lo...

[ 2 ] - Entropy of Hybrid Censoring Schemes

A hybrid censoring scheme is a mixture of type I and type II censoring schemes. When $n$ items are placed on a life test, the experiment terminates under type I or type II hybrid censoring scheme if either a pre-fixed censoring time T or the rth (1<=r<=n&nbsp;is fixed) failure is first or later observed, respectively. In this paper, we investigate the decomposition of entropy in both hybrid cen...

[ 3 ] - Optimal Simple Step-Stress Plan for Type-I Censored Data from Geometric Distribution

Abstract. A simple step-stress accelerated life testing plan is considered when the failure times in each level of stress are geometrically distributed under Type-I censoring. The problem of choosing the optimal plan is investigated using the asymptotic variance-optimality as well as determinant-optimality and probability-optimality criteria. To illustrate the results of the paper, an example i...
