An Analysis of Type-I Generalized Progressive Hybrid Censoring for the One Parameter Logistic-Geometry Lifetime Distribution with Applications

Abstract

Based on Type-I generalized progressive hybrid censored samples (GPHCSs), the parameter estimate for the unit-half logistic-geometry (UHLG) distribution is investigated in this work. Using maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) and Bayesian estimation, the parameters, reliability, and hazard functions of the UHLG distribution under GPHCSs have been assessed. Likewise, the computation is carried out for the asymptotic confidence intervals (ACIs). Furthermore, two bootstrap CIs, bootstrap-p and bootstrap-t, are mentioned. For symmetric loss functions, like squared error loss (SEL), and asymmetric loss functions, such as linear exponential loss (LL) and general entropy loss (GEL), there are specific Bayesian approximations. The Metropolis–Hastings samplers methodology were used to construct the credible intervals (CRIs). In conclusion, a genuine data set measuring the mortality statistics of a group of male mice with reticulum cell sarcoma is regarded as an application of the methods given.
