In the two-sample prediction problem, record values from the present sample may be used as predictors of order statistics from a future sample. In this paper, we investigate the nearness of record statistics (upper and lower) to order statistics from a location-scale family of distributions in...

In this work the ranked set sampling technique has been applied to estimate the scale parameter <InlineEquation ID="IEq1"> <EquationSource Format="TEX">$$\alpha $$</EquationSource> </InlineEquation> of a log-logistic distribution under a situation where the units in a sample can be ordered by judgement method without any error. We have evaluated the Fisher information contained in...</equationsource></inlineequation>
