Estimation for the double Rayleigh distribution based on progressive Type-II censored samples

• Published : 2009.11.30

Abstract

This paper deals with the estimation based on progressive Type-II censored samples from the double Rayleigh distribution. We derive some estimators of the location and scale parameters of the double Rayleigh distribution based on progressive Type-II censored samples. We compare the proposed estimators in the sense of the mean squared error for various censored samples.
