Bayesian comparison given a type two censored samples from one parameters exponential distribution

Abstract

Bayesian comparison of the exponential distribution, based on type two censored life test, has been developed. For the five different prior distributions of the scale parameter e, point and two sided Bayes interval estimates of e have been obtained. Comparisons between these estimators with the non Bayesian estimator, in the sense of Bayesian risk, have been carried out by using the exact and asymptotic Bayesian results. Finally, examination of the present results has been carried out using numerical example and computer facilities.
