Abstract
In the lifetime and reliability experiments, the censored samples play a fundamental and important role in order to control time and cost. The researchers developed the censored sample schemes to solve the problems that arise by applying the previous methods. Recently, Górny and Cramer (2018) proposed a new general type of censored sample called Type-II unified progressive hybrid censored sample. In this paper, we present an overview of the Type-II unified progressive hybrid censored sample. We used this censored sample to compute the maximum likelihood estimates of unknown parameters from the Pareto distribution, as well as Bayesian estimates for unknown parameters under three different error loss functions. The point and interval Bayesian predictions one- and two-sample Bayesian predictions from the Pareto distribution are shown. Simulation studies are carried out to compare the efficacy of the various inference approaches. Finally, real data sets are examined to determine the applicability of the proposed model and various estimating approaches.
