A New Two Sample Type-II Progressive Censoring Scheme (1609.05805v1)

Published 19 Sep 2016 in stat.ME and stat.AP

Abstract: Progressive censoring scheme has received considerable attention in recent years. In this paper we introduce a new type-II progressive censoring scheme for two samples. It is observed that the proposed censoring scheme is analytically more tractable than the existing joint progressive type-II censoring scheme proposed by Rasouli and Balakrishnan \cite{RB:2010}. It has some other advantages also. We study the statistical inference of the unknown parameters based on the assumptions that the lifetime distribution of the experimental units for the two samples follow exponential distribution with different scale parameters. The maximum likelihood estimators of the unknown parameters are obtained and their exact distributions are derived. Based on the exact distributions of the maximum likelihood estimators exact confidence intervals are also constructed. For comparison purposes we have used bootstrap confidence intervals also. It is observed that the bootstrap confidence intervals work very well and they are very easy to implement in practice. Some simulation experiments are performed to compare the performances of the proposed method with the existing one, and the performances of the proposed method are quite satisfactory. One data analysis has been performed for illustrative purposes. Finally we propose some open problems.
