초록

When the available sample is multiply type-II censored, the maximum likelihood estimators of the location and scale parameters of two- parameter exponential distribution do not exist explicitly. In this case, we propose several approximate maximum likelihood estimators by approximating the likelihood equations appropriately. We present an example to illustrate these estimation methods.
