This volume provides an up-to-date coverage of the theory and applications of ordered
random variables and their functions. Furthermore, it develops the distribution theory of OS …

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the concept of prediction of order statistics. It
describes interval and point prediction. Much of the past work on prediction intervals …

In this paper, we consider generalized inverted exponential distribution which is capable of
modeling various shapes of failure rates and aging criteria. The purpose of this paper is two …

In this paper, we discuss different predictors of times to failure of units censored in multiple
stages in a progressively censored sample from Pareto distribution. The best linear …

In this article, we consider the problem of predicting times to failure of units censored in
multiple stages in a progressively censored sample from an absolutely continuous …

The accelerated life testing (ALT) is frequently used in examining the component reliability
and acceptance testing. The ALT is carried out by exposing the unit to higher stress levels in …

The unified hybrid censoring is a mixture of generalized Type I and Type II hybrid censoring
schemes. This paper presents the statistical inference and prediction of the Burr Type XII …

In this paper, we consider the prediction of a future observation based on a type-I hybrid
censored sample when the lifetime distribution of experimental units is assumed to be a …

In this paper, step-stress accelerated life test is considered to obtain the failure time data of
highly reliable units in specified conditions. It is assumed that the lifetime data of such units …

A lot of probabilists and statisticians, as well as actuarial mathematicians, reliability
engineers, meteorologists, hydrologists, economists, business and sport analysts, very often …
