AbstractVarious types of censoring schemes basically type-I and type-II censoring schemes and their modified versions are used in life testing experiments. Most of the tests used in life testing experiments are based on a single sample. A joint censoring scheme is quite useful in conducting comparative life tests of products from different units within the same facility. In this article, we consider two exponential life time models under joint multiply type-II censoring scheme, which is a generalization of usual type-II censoring scheme, implemented on the two samples. We have considered maximum likelihood estimation and Bayesian estimation for estimating the reliability of the product under such a censoring scheme. The results are compared with the results obtained under usual type-II censoring scheme. In Bayes estimation the effect of prior parameters on mean life time and reliability of the product is discussed. We have used the local influence approach for identifying observations that strike a disproportionate effect in the maximum likelihood estimate of the reliability in the model. The life time data set of air-conditioning systems of two Boeing 720 jet airplanes “7914” and “7913” are used to apply the theory developed in the paper.

Progressive Type Ii Censoring

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.

Censoring Scheme

In experiments on product lifetime and reliability testing, there are many practical situations in which researchers terminate the experiment and report the results before all items of the experiment fail because of time or cost consideration. The most common and popular censoring schemes are type-I and type-II censoring. In type-I censoring scheme, the termination time is pre-fixed, but the number of observed failures is a random variable. However, if the mean lifetime of experimental units is somewhat larger than the pre-fixed termination time, then far fewer failures would be observed and this is a significant disadvantage on the efficiency of inferential procedures. In type-II censoring scheme, however, the number of observed failures is pre-fixed, but the experiment time is a random variable. In this case, at least pre-specified number of failure are obtained, but the termination time is clearly a disadvantage from the experimenter’s point of view. To overcome some of the drawbacks in those schemes, the hybrid censoring scheme, which is a mixture of the conventional type-I and type-II censoring schemes, has received much attention in recent years. In this paper, we consider the analysis of type-I and type-II hybrid censored data where the lifetimes of items follow two-parameter log-logistic distribution. We present the maximum likelihood estimators of unknown parameters and asymptotic confidence intervals, and a simulation study is conducted to evaluate the proposed methods.

Progressive Type Ii Censoring

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.

In this paper, the parameters of the extended odd Weibull exponential distribution are estimated under progressive type-II censoring scheme with random removal. The model parameters are estimated using the maximum product spacing and maximum likelihood estimation methods. Further, we explore the asymptotic confidence intervals and bootstrap confidence intervals for the model parameters. Monte Carlo simulations are performed to compare between the proposed estimation methods under progressive type-II censoring scheme. An empirical study using two real datasets form engineering and medicine fields to validate the introduced methods of inference. Based on our study, we can conclude that the maximum product of spacing method outperforms the maximum likelihood method for estimating the extended odd Weibull exponential (EOWE) parameters under a progressive type-II censoring scheme in both numerical and empirical cases.

Progressive Type Ii Censoring

This paper provides an estimation method for an unknown parameter by extending weighted least-squared and pivot-based methods to the Gompertz distribution with the shape and scale parameters under the progressive Type-II censoring scheme, which induces a consistent estimator and an unbiased estimator of the scale parameter. In addition, a way to deal with a nuisance parameter is provided in the pivot-based approach. For evaluation and comparison, the Monte Carlo simulations are conducted, and real data are analyzed.
