In this paper, the Weibull extension distribution parameters are estimated under a progressive type-II censoring scheme with random removal. The parameters of the model are estimated using the maximum likelihood method, maximum product spacing, and Bayesian estimation methods. In classical estimation (maximum likelihood method and maximum product spacing), we did use the Newton–Raphson algorithm. The Bayesian estimation is done using the Metropolis–Hastings algorithm based on the square error loss function. The proposed estimation methods are compared using Monte Carlo simulations under a progressive type-II censoring scheme. An empirical study using a real data set of transformer insulation and a simulation study is performed to validate the introduced methods of inference. Based on the result of our study, it can be concluded that the Bayesian method outperforms the maximum likelihood and maximum product-spacing methods for estimating the Weibull extension parameters under a progressive type-II censoring scheme in both simulation and empirical studies.

We propose a new two-parameter discrete model, called discrete Type-II half-logistics exponential (DTIIHLE) distribution using the survival discretization approach. The DTIIHLE distribution can be utilized to model COVID-19 data. The model parameters are estimated using the maximum likelihood method. A simulation study is conducted to evaluate the performance of the maximum likelihood estimators. The usefulness of the proposed distribution is evaluated using two real-life COVID-19 data sets. The DTIIHLE distribution provides a superior fit to COVID-19 data as compared with competitive discrete models including the discrete-Pareto, discrete Burr-XII, discrete log-logistic, discrete-Lindley, discrete-Rayleigh, discrete inverse-Rayleigh, and natural discrete-Lindley.

In this paper, we obtained several recurrence relations for the single and product moments under progressively Type-II right censored order statistics and then use these results to compute the means and variances of two parameter reduced Kies distribution. Besides, these moments are then utilized to derived best linear unbiased estimators of the scale and location parameters of two parameter reduced Kies distribution. The parameters of the two parameter reduced Kies distribution are estimated under progressive type-II censoring scheme. The model parameters are estimated using the maximum likelihood estimation method. Further, we explore the asymptotic confidence intervals for the model parameters. Monte Carlo simulations are performed to compare between the proposed estimation methods under progressive type-II censoring scheme. Based on our study, we can conclude that maximum likelihood estimators is decreasing with respect to an increase of the schemes and comparing the three censoring schemes, it is clear that the mean sum of squares, confidence interval lengths are smaller for scheme 1 than schemes 2 and 3.

Suppose that the life of unit is distributed as two-parameter exponential distribution. The Bayesian estimation for cold standby series system is studied based on general Progressive type II censored samples. Under the different error loss, the Bayesian estimation of the unknown parameter and reliability function are derived where hyper-parameters are estimated by using Maximum likelihood method. At last, a numerical example is given by means of the Monte-Carlo simulation to illustrate the correctness and feasibility for the method proposed in this paper.

A new generalization of the Frechet distribution called Lehmann Type II Frechet Poisson distribution is defined and studied. Various structural mathematical properties of the proposed model including ordinary moments, incomplete moments, generating functions, order statistics, Renyi entropy, stochastic ordering, Bonferroni and Lorenz curve, mean and median deviation, stress-strength parameter are investigated. The maximum likelihood method is used to estimate the model parameters. We examine the performance of the maximum likelihood method by means of a numerical simulation study. The new distribution is applied for modeling three real data sets to illustrate empirically its flexibility and tractability in modeling life time data.
