Abstract
- The aim of the paper is to estimate the unknown parameters of weighted exponential distribution based on the competing risks model under progressively Type-II censoring. It is supposed that the latent causes of failures have weighted exponential distributions with different parameters. The maximum likelihood estimations of four unknown parameters are derived and the uniqueness and existence of them are theoretically proved. Moreover, approximate intervals are proposed and constructed with the delta method and Fisher information matrix. Bootstrap methods are also applied to calculate the confidence intervals. Furthermore, Bayes estimates and the corresponding credible intervals under three various loss functions are computed by using the Monte Carlo Markov Chain method. A simulation study is conducted to assess the statistical performance of all the estimators. Ultimately, real data analysis is provided to illustrate all the statistical inferential procedures developed in the paper. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
