Pareto distributions and related generalizations have historically been viewed as being
suitable for modelling income and wealth distributions. Following a brief review of the history …

Compound-Gaussian model with inverse Gamma-distributed texture is widely used to
characterize high-resolution sea clutter and is also referred to as the generalized Pareto …

We consider an optimization design for the alpha power exponential (APE) distribution as
asymmetrical probability distributions under progressive type-I censoring for a step-stress …

This paper takes into account the estimation for the unknown parameter of the Rayleigh
distribution under Type II progressive censoring with binomial removals, where the number …

It is often the case that some information is available on the parameter of failure time
distributions from previous experiments or analyses of failure time data. The Bayesian …

Abstract Recently Gupta et al.(1998) introduced a new distribution, called the exponentiated
Pareto distribution. In this paper, we consider the maximum likelihood estimation of the …

In many practical situations, complete data are not available in lifetime studies. Many of the
available observations are right censored giving survival information up to a noted time and …

For many high reliability products where very few items are expected to fail during the test
period, testing under normal conditions is not feasible. Further, the requirement for high …

This paper considers the estimation and prediction problems when lifetimes are Pareto-
distributed and are collected under Type II progressive censoring with random removals …

In this article, we develop a test statistic to test whether the progressively Type-II censored
samples come from an exponential distribution. The null distribution of the test statistic is …
