This paper deals with the Bayesian inference of the linear hazard rate (LHR) distribution under a progressively censoring scheme. A unified treatment of both Type I and Type II censoring is presented under independent gamma priors for the parameters, that yields the posteriors as mixtures of...

In single-shot expensive tests of a destructive nature, an inverse sampling scheme is often pursued in order to use the available resources efficiently. This is particularly relevant for evaluating reliabilities for systems that are subjected to test-analyze-and-fix programs at successive...
