Abstract

In this paper, we derive maximum likelihood estimators (MLEs) and approximate maximum likelihood estimators (AMLEs) of unknown parameters in a generalized half logistic distribution under Type-II hybrid censoring. We also obtain approximate confidence intervals using asymptotic variance and covariance matrices based on the MLEs and the AMLEs. As an illustration, we examine the validity of the proposed estimation using real data. Finally, we compare the proposed estimators in the sense of the mean squared error (MSE), bias, and length of the approximate confidence interval through a Monte Carlo simulation for various censoring schemes.
