Keeping in view the Bayesian approach, the study aims to develop methods through the utilization of Jeffreys prior and modified Jeffreys prior to the covariate obtained by using the Importance sampling technique. For maximum likelihood estimator, covariate parameters, and the shape parameter of Weibull regression distribution with the censored data of Type II will be estimated by the study. It is shown that the obtained estimators in closed forms are not available, but through the usage of appropriate numerical methods, they can be solved. The mean square error is the criterion of comparison. With the use of simulation, performances of these three estimates are assessed, bearing in mind different censored percentages, and various sizes of the sample.

This paper deals with the problem of uniformly minimum variance unbiased estimation for the parameter of the Gompertz distribution based on progressively Type II censored data with binomial removals. We have obtained the uniformly minimum variance unbiased estimator (UMVUE) for powers of the shape parameter and its functions. The UMVUE of the variance of these estimators is also given. The UMVUE of (i) pdf, (ii) cdf, (iii) reliability function, and (iv) hazard function of the Gompertz distribution is derived. Further, an exact % confidence interval for the th quantile is obtained. The UMVUE of pdf is utilized to obtain the UMVUE of . An illustrative numerical example is presented.
