In this paper, we propose two new methods to perform goodness-of-fit tests on the log-logistic distribution under progressive Type II censoring based on the cumulative residual Kullback-Leibler information and cumulative Kullback-Leibler information. Maximum likelihood estimation and the EM algorithm are used for statistical inference of the unknown parameter. The Monte Carlo simulation is conducted to study the power analysis on the alternative distributions of the hazard function monotonically increasing and decreasing. Finally, we present illustrative examples to show the applicability of the proposed methods.

Abstract Recently, entropy and extropy-based tests for the uniform distribution have attracted the attention of some researchers. This paper proposes nonparametric entropy and extropy estimators based on progressive type-II censoring and investigates their properties and behavior. Performance of the proposed estimators is studied via simulations. Entropy and extropy-based goodness-of-fit tests for uniformity are developed by the well performed estimators. The powers of the proposed uniformity tests are compared also via simulations assuming various alternatives and censoring schemes.
