Abstract

This study develops explicit algebraic expressions for the single and product moments of order statistics derived from the generalized Bilal (GB) distribution. These expressions facilitate the computation of means, variances and covariances of order statistics for sample sizes up to n = 10 {n=10} with specified parameter values. The derived moments serve as the foundation for constructing the best linear unbiased estimators (BLUEs) and best linear invariant estimators (BLIEs) for the location and scale parameters applicable to both complete and type-II right censored samples. Additionally, the study explores the prediction of unobserved order statistics in type-II right censored samples. The theoretical results are validated through a simulation study, while a real data example highlights their practical utility. These findings establish a robust framework for statistical inference based on order statistics from the GB distribution.
