Bayesian Inference in Dependent Right Censoring

Abstract

In this article, we consider dependent right censoring when the lifetime and censoring variables have a Marshall–Olkin bivariate exponential distribution and obtain MLEs, MMEs and UMVUEs of the unknown parameters. The Bayes estimators as well as the Posterior Regret Gamma Minimax (PRGM) estimators of the parameters of interest under the SEL function are also obtained and a Monte Carlo simulation study is carried out to compare these estimators.
