Based on hybrid censored data, the problem of making statistical inference on parameters of a two parameter Burr Type XII distribution is taken up. The maximum likelihood estimates are developed for the unknown parameters using the EM algorithm. Fisher information matrix is obtained by applying...

Independent random samples are taken from two normal populations with means <InlineEquation ID="IEq1"> <EquationSource Format="TEX">$$\mu _1$$</EquationSource> </InlineEquation> and <InlineEquation ID="IEq2"> <EquationSource Format="TEX">$$\mu _2$$</EquationSource> </InlineEquation> and a common unknown variance <InlineEquation ID="IEq3"> <EquationSource Format="TEX">$$\sigma ^2.$$</EquationSource> </InlineEquation> It is known that <InlineEquation ID="IEq4"> <EquationSource Format="TEX">$$\mu _1\le \mu _2.$$</EquationSource> </InlineEquation> In this paper, estimation of the common standard deviation <InlineEquation ID="IEq5"> <EquationSource Format="TEX">$$\sigma $$</EquationSource> </InlineEquation> is considered with respect to...</equationsource></inlineequation></equationsource></inlineequation></equationsource></inlineequation></equationsource></inlineequation></equationsource></inlineequation>
