In this paper, we consider the statistical inference for the success probability in the case of start-up demonstration tests in which rejection of units is possible when a pre-fixed number of failures is observed before the required number of consecutive successes are achieved for acceptance of...

Inference for the extreme-value regression model under Type-II censoring is discussed. The likelihood function and the score functions of the unknown parameters are presented. The asymptotic variance-covariance matrix is derived through the inverse of the expected Fisher information matrix....
