Entropy is an uncertainty measure of random variables which mathematically represents the prospective quantity of the information. In this paper, we mainly focus on the estimation for the parameters and entropy of an Inverse Weibull distribution under progressive first-failure censoring using classical (Maximum Likelihood) and Bayesian methods. For Bayesian approaches, the Bayesian estimates are obtained based on both asymmetric (General Entropy, Linex) and symmetric (Squared Error) loss functions. Due to the complex form of Bayes estimates, we cannot get an explicit solution. Therefore, the Lindley method as well as Importance Sampling procedure is applied. Furthermore, using Importance Sampling method, the Highest Posterior Density credible intervals of entropy are constructed. As a comparison, the asymptotic intervals of entropy are also gained. Finally, a simulation study is implemented and a real data set analysis is performed to apply the previous methods.

In this paper, Bayesian and non-Bayesian estimation of the inverted Topp-Leone distribution shape parameter are studied when the sample is complete and random censored. The maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) and Bayes estimator of the unknown parameter are proposed. The Bayes estimates (BEs) have been computed based on the squared error loss (SEL) function and using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) techniques. The asymptotic, bootstrap (p,t), and highest posterior density intervals are computed. The Metropolis Hasting algorithm is proposed for Bayes estimates. Monte Carlo simulation is performed to compare the performances of the proposed methods and one real data set has been analyzed for illustrative purposes.

This paper deals with the estimation procedure for inverse Weibull distribution under progressive type-II censored samples when removals follow Beta-binomial probability law. To estimate the unknown parameters, the maximum likelihood and Bayes estimators are obtained under progressive censoring scheme mentioned above. Bayes estimates are obtained using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) technique considering square error loss function and compared with the corresponding MLE's. Further, the expected total time on test is obtained under considered censoring scheme.  Finally, a real data set has been analysed to check the validity of the study.

New Distribution

In this paper, we try to contribute to the distribution theory literature by incorporating a new bounded distribution, called the unit generalized inverse Weibull distribution (UGIWD) in the (0, 1) intervals by transformation method. The proposed distribution exhibits  increasing and bathtub shaped hazard rate function. We derive some basic statistical properties of the new distribution. Based on complete sample, the model parameters are obtained by the methods of maximum likelihood, least square, weighted least square, percentile, maximum product of spacing and Cram`er-von-Mises and compared them using Monte Carlo simulation study. In addition, bootstrap confidence intervals of the parameters of the model based on aforementioned methods of estimation are also obtained. We illustrate the performance of the proposed distribution by means of one real data set and the data set shows that the new distribution is more appropriate as compared to unit Birnbaum-Saunders, unit gamma, unit Weibull, Kumaraswamy and unit Burr III distributions. Further, we construct chi-squared goodness-of-fit tests for the UGIWD using right censored data based on Nikulin-Rao-Robson (NRR) statistic and its modification. The criterion test used is the modified chi-squared statistic Y^2, developedby Bagdonavi?ius and Nikulin, 2011 for some parametric models when data are censored. The performances of the proposed test are shown by an intensive simulation study and an application to real data set

Inverse Weibull Distribution

A generalization of the generalized inverse Weibull distribution the so-called transmuted generalized inverse Weibull distribution is proposed and studied. We will use the quadratic rank transmutation map (QRTM) in order to generate a flexible family of probability distributions taking the generalized inverseWeibull distribution as the base value distribution by introducing a new parameter that would offer more distributional flexibility. Various structural properties including explicit expressions for the moments, quantiles, and moment generating function of the new distribution are derived. We propose the method of maximum likelihood for estimating the model parameters and obtain the observed information matrix. A real data set are used to compare the flexibility of the transmuted version versus the generalized inverse Weibull distribution.

A maximum likelihood estimation method was used in estimating the parameters of the distribution.

Estimating the accurate evaluation of product lifetime performance has always been a hot topic in manufacturing industry. This paper, based on the lifetime performance index, focuses on its evaluation when a lower specification limit is given. The progressive first-failure-censored data we discuss have a common log-logistic distribution. Both Bayesian and non-Bayesian method are studied. Bayes estimator of the parameters of the log-logistic distribution and the lifetime performance index are obtained using both the Lindley approximation and Monte Carlo Markov Chain methods under symmetric and asymmetric loss functions. As for interval estimation, we apply the maximum likelihood estimator to construct the asymptotic confidence intervals and the Metropolis–Hastings algorithm to establish the highest posterior density credible intervals. Moreover, we analyze a real data set for demonstrative purposes. In addition, different criteria for deciding the optimal censoring scheme have been studied.

The hybrid censoring is a mixture of type-I and type-II censoring schemes. This paper presents the statistical inferences of the inverse Weibull distribution parameters when the data are type-I hybrid censored. First, we consider the maximum likelihood estimates of the unknown parameters. It is observed that the maximum likelihood estimates can not be obtained in closed form. We further obtain the Bayes estimates and the corresponding highest posterior density credible intervals of the unknown parameters under the assumption of independent gamma priors using the importance sampling procedure. We also compute the approximate Bayes estimates using Lindley's approximation technique. The performance of the Bayes estimates have been compared with maximum likelihood estimates through the Monte Carlo Markov chain techniques. Finally, a real data set have been analysed for illustration purpose.
