Approximate MLEs for Exponential Distribution Under Multiple Type-II Censoring
Abstract
When the available sample is multiply Type-II censored, the maximum likelihood estimators of the location and the scale parameters of two-parameter exponential distribution do not admit explicitly. In this case, we propose some approximate maximum likelihood estimators by approximating the likelihood equations appropriately. We present an example to illustrate these estimation methods.
