Statistical Inference for The Gompertz Distribution Based on Type-II Progressively Hybrid Censored Data
Nagy, Magdy . 2019
In this paper, the statistical inference for the Gompertz distribution based on generalized progressively hybrid censored data is discussed. The estimation of the parameters for Gompertz distribution is discussed using the maximum likelihood method and the Bayesian methods under different loss functions. The existence and uniqueness of the maximum likelihood estimation are proved. The point and interval Bayesian predictions for unobserved failures from the same sample and that from the future sample are derived. The Monte Carlo simulation is applied to compare the proposed methods. A real data example is used to apply the methods of estimation and to construct the prediction intervals.
The procedure of selecting the values of hyper-parameters for prior distributions in Bayesian estimate has produced many problems and has drawn the attention of many authors, therefore the…
By observing the failure behavior of the recorded survival data, we aim to compare the different processing approaches or the effectiveness of the devices or systems applied in this nonparametric…
