Interval estimation of the scale parameter of the gamma distribution using grouped data is considered in this article. Exact intervals do not exist and approximate intervals are needed Recently, Chen and Mi (2001) proposed ...

Interval estimation of the ROC curve is considered using the empirical likelihood techniques. Suggested is a procedure that is very simple computationally and avoids the constrained optimization problems usually faced with ...

We consider likelihood-based and bootstrap confidence intervals for the quantiles based on record values from the Weibull distribution. We developed also intervals for the difference of quantiles based on two independent ...

The estimation of the reliability function of the Weibull lifetime model is considered in the presence of uncertain prior information (not in the form of prior distribution) on the parameter of interest. This information ...

In this paper we consider and propose some confidence intervals for estimating the mean or difference of means of skewed populations. We extend the median t interval to the two sample problem. Further, we suggest using the ...

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 ...

We consider the likelihood and Bayesian estimation of the stress-strength reliability based on lower record values from the generalized exponential distribution. The estimators are derived and their properties are studied. ...

We consider nonparametric interval estimation for the population mean and quantiles based on a ranked set sample. The asymptotic distributions of the empirical log likelihood ratio statistic for the mean and quantiles are ...
