Bayes Inference in Constant Partially Accelerated Life Tests for the Generalized Exponential Distribution with Progressive Censoring.

In this paper, the problem of constant partially accelerated life tests when the lifetime follows the generalized exponential distribution is considered. Based on progressive type-II censoring scheme, the maximum likelihood and Bayes methods of estimation are used for estimating the distribution parameters and acceleration factor. A Monte Carlo simulation study is carried out to examine the performance of the obtained estimates. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
