Under this method, we use Linex loss function, conjugate and Jeffreys prior distributions to derive the Bayesian estimate of α. In order to measure the efficiency of the obtained Bayesian estimates with respect to the Bayesian estimates of simple random sampling (SRS), we compute the bias, mean squared error (MSE) and asymptotic relative efficiency of the obtained Bayesian estimates using simulation. It is shown that the proposed estimates are found to be more efficient than the corresponding one based on SRS.展开更多

Based on this new censoring were the number of units removed at each failure time has a discrete binomial distribution. The maximum likelihood, Bootstrap and Bayes estimates for the Burr-X distribution are obtained. The Bayes estimators are obtained using both the symmetric and asymmetric loss functions. Approximate confidence interval and highest posterior density interval (HPDI) are discussed. A numerical example is provided to illustrate the proposed estimation methods developed here. The maximum likelihood and the different Bayes estimates are compared via a Monte Carlo simulation study.展开更多

Response times are assumed to follow simple exponential distributions, with a different parameter for each patient. The analyses are carried out in case of progressive censoring assuming squared error loss function and gamma distribution as priors and hyperpriors. The possibilities of using the methodology in more general situations like dose- response modeling have also been explored. Bayesian estimators derived in this paper are applied to lung cancer data set with concomitant variables.展开更多
