Some recurrence relations are established for the single and product moments of upper record values for the extended exponential distribution by Nadarajah and Haghighi (2011) as an alternative to the gamma, Weibull, and the exponentiated exponential distributions. Recurrence relations for negative moments and quotient moments of upper record values are also obtained. Using relations of single moments and product moments, means, variances, and covariances of upper record values from samples of sizes up to 10 are tabulated for various values of the shape parameter and scale parameter. A characterization of this distribution based on conditional moments of record values is presented.

Teimouri and Nadarajah [Statist. Methodol.13 (2013) 12–24] considered bias corrected maximum likelihood estimation of the Weibull distribution based on upper record values. Here, we propose an estimator for the Weibull shape parameter based on consecutive upper records. It is shown by simulations that the proposed estimator has less bias and less mean squared error than an estimator due to Soliman et al. [Comput. Statist. Data Anal.51 (2006) 2065–2077] based on all upper records. Also, the proposed estimator can be considered as a good competitor for the maximum likelihood estimator of the shape parameter based on complete data. This is proved by simulations and using a real dataset.

This paper deals with the problem of classical and Bayesian estimation of stress-strength reliability (R=P(X<Y)) based on upper record values from generalized inverted exponential distribution (GIED). Hassan {et al.} (2018) discussed the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) and Bayes estimator of $R$ by considering that the scale parameter to be known for defined distribution while we consider the case when all the parameters of GIED are unknown. In the classical approach, we have discussed MLE and uniformly minimum variance estimator (UMVUE). In Bayesian approach, we have considered the Bays estimator of R by considering the squared error loss function. Further, based on upper records, we have considered the Asymptotic confidence interval based on MLE, Bayesian credible interval and bootstrap confidence interval for $R$. Finally, Monte Carlo simulations and real data applications are being carried out for comparing the performances of the estimators of R.
