Exponentiated power Lindley distribution is proposed as a generalization of some widely well-known distributions such as Lindley, power Lindley, and generalized Lindley distributions. In this paper, the exact explicit expressions for moments of order statistics from the exponentiated power Lindley distribution are derived. By using these relations, the best linear unbiased estimates of the location and scale parameters, based on type-II right-censored sample, are obtained. Next, the mean, variance, and coefficients of skewness and kurtosis of some certain linear functions of order statistics are calculated and then used to derive the approximate confidence interval for the location and scale parameters using the Edgeworth approximation. Finally, some numerical illustrations and two real data applications are presented.

Saving money and time are very important in any research project, so we must find a way to decrease the time of the experiment. This method is called the accelerated life tests (ALT) under censored samples, which is a very efficient method to reduce time, which leads to a decrease in the cost of the experiment. This research project includes inference on Lindley distribution in a simple step-stress ALT for the Type II progressive censored sample. The paper contains two major sections, which are a simulation study and a real-data application on the experimental design of an industry experiment on lamps. These sections are used to conduct results on the study of the distribution. The simulation was done using Mathematica 11 program. To use real data in the censored sample, we fitted them to be compatible with the Lindley distribution using the modified Kolmogorov–Smirnov (KS) goodness of fit test for progressive Type II censored data. We used the tampered random variable (TRV) acceleration model to generate early failures of items under stress. We also found the values of the distribution parameter and the accelerating factor using the maximum likelihood estimation of (MLEs) and Bayes estimates (BEs) using symmetric loss function for both simulated data and real data. Next, we estimated the upper and lower bounds of the parameters using three methods, namely approximate confidence intervals (CIs), Bootstrap CIs, and credible CIs, for both parameters of the distribution, ψ and ζ. Finally, we found the value of the parameter for the real data set under normal use conditions and stress conditions and graphed the reliability functions under normal and accelerated use.

We propose the weighted moments estimators (WMEs) of the location and scale parameters for the extreme value distribution based on the multiply type II censored sample. Simulated mean squared errors (MSEs) of best linear unbiased estimator (BLUE) and exact MSEs of WMEs are compared to study the behavior of different estimation methods. The results show the best estimator among the WMEs and BLUE under different combinations of censoring schemes.

In this paper, we derive explicit expressions for the single and product moments of order statistics arising from the standard triangular distribution. Best linear unbiased estimators of the location and scale parameters of a triangular distribution based on order statistics are obtained. The efficiencies of these estimators are also compared with estimators based on U-statistics

In this paper, we have proposed a new version of power lindley distribution known as weighted power lindley distribution. The different structural properties of the newly model have been studied. The maximum likelihood estimators of the parameters and the Fishers information matrix have been discussed. It also provides more flexibility to analyze complex real data sets.  An application of the model to a real data set is analyzed using the new distribution, which shows that the weighted power Lindley distribution can be used quite effectively in analyzing real lifetime data.
