Estimation of Pr(X ≤ Y) using record values in the one and two parameter exponential distributions

Abstract

Abstract We consider the problem of estimating the stress-strength reliability when the available data is in the form of record values. The one parameter and two parameters exponential distribution are considered. In the case of two parameters exponential distributions we considered the case where the location parameter is common and the case where the scale parameter is common. The maximum likelihood estimators and the associated confidence intervals are derived
