Abstract
In this paper, we obtain the E-Bayesian estimation of the parameter and the reliability function of the Burr type-XII distribution under adaptive progressive Type-II censoring scheme. The E-Bayesian estimation is investigated using three different prior distributions based on squared error and LINEX loss functions. The properties of the E-Bayesian estimation and the E-posterior risk under squared error and LINEX loss functions are also discussed. An extensive simulation study is conducted to compare the behaviour of the E-Bayesian estimation with the corresponding Bayes and maximum likelihood estimators. We analyze one real data set to show the applicability of the different estimators in practice.
