E-Bayesian inference for xgamma distribution under progressive type II censoring with binomial removals and their applications

In this article, we propose E-Bayes estimators of the parameter of xgamma distribution under squared error loss function, general entropy loss function, and linear exponential loss function for progressive type II censored data with binomial removals. The proposed estimators, maximum likelihood estimator, and corresponding Bayes estimators are compared in terms of their risks based on simulated samples from xgamma distribution. The proposed methodology is illustrated on two real data sets of bile duct cancer data and the endurance of deep-groove ball bearings data.
