Selecting the optimal progressive censoring scheme for the exponential distribution
according to Pitman closeness criterion is discussed. For small sample sizes the Pitman …

We first compare the ranked set sampling (RSS) and simple random sampling schemes for
the estimation of the population median through Pitman's measure of closeness. Then, by …

Two modified ranked set sampling schemes are used to estimate the upper and lower
quantiles of an underlying distribution. The performance of these sampling schemes is …

In this work, we extend prior results concerning the simultaneous Pitman closeness of order
statistics (OS) to population quantiles. By considering progressively type-II right-censored …

Hybrid Censoring Know-How: Models, Methods and Applications focuses on hybrid
censoring, an important topic in censoring methodology with numerous applications. The …

In reliability studies, one typically would assume a lifetime distribution for the units under
study and then carry out the required analysis. One popular choice for the lifetime …

Suppose upper records from two independent sequences from iid continuous random
variables from the same distribution are observed. Pitman's measure of closeness of these …

In this paper, we study the Pitman measure of closeness of order statistics of two
independent samples from the same distribution to population quantiles. We then derive …

In this paper, we consider two problems concerning two independent progressively Type-II
censored samples. We first consider the Pitman closeness (PC) of order statistics from two …
