Abstract

In this paper, we discuss the problem of estimating the parameters of the generalized linear exponential distribution based on progressive first-failure censoring scheme. The maximum likelihood and Bayes methods of estimation are used. The Markov Chain Monte Carlo technique is used for computing the Bayes estimates under informative and non-informative priors. The Bayes estimates of the parameters are compared with their corresponding maximum likelihood estimates. A numerical example is provided to illustrate the proposed methods. A real data sets are used to show the performance of the censoring schemes using maximum likelihood estimator and Bayes estimator.
