Estimation for the Rayleigh Distribution with Known Parameter under Multiply Type-II Censoring

  • Published : 2006.08.31

Abstract

For multiply Type-II censored samples from two-parameter Rayleigh distribution, we derive some approximate maximum likelihood estimators of parameter in the Rayleigh distribution when the other parameter is known. We also compare the proposed estimators in the sense of the mean squared error for various censored samples.
