Abstract

Improved adaptive type-II progressive censoring schemes (IAT-II PCS) are increasingly being used to estimate parameters and reliability characteristics of lifetime distributions, leading to more accurate and reliable estimates. The logistic exponential distribution (LED), a flexible distribution with five hazard rate forms, is employed in several fields, including lifetime, financial, and environmental data. This research aims to enhance the accuracy and reliability estimation capabilities for the logistic exponential distribution under IAT-II PCS. By developing novel statistical inference methods, we can better understand the behavior of failure times, allow for more accurate decision-making, and improve the overall reliability of the model. In this research, we consider both classical and Bayesian techniques. The classical technique involves constructing maximum likelihood estimators of the model parameters and their asymptotic covariance matrix, followed by estimating the distribution’s reliability using survival and hazard functions. The delta approach is used to create estimated confidence intervals for the model parameters. In the Bayesian technique, prior information about the LED parameters is used to estimate the posterior distribution of the parameters, which is derived using Bayes’ theorem. The model’s reliability is determined by computing the posterior predictive distribution of the survival or hazard functions. Extensive simulation studies and real-data applications assess the effectiveness of the proposed methods and evaluate their performance against existing methods.
