Censored sampling arises in a life testing experiment whenever the experimenter does not observe the failure times of all items placed on a life test. Progressive censoring scheme is useful in both industrial life testing applications and clinical settings; it allows the removal of surviving experimental units before the termination of the test. In this book, we obtain the maximum likelihood, and Bayes estimations for the parameter of the Burr-X model as well as the binomial parameter, based on progressive first-failure censoring with binomial removals. Bayes estimators under symmetric and...
