摘要
Hoadley (Ann Math Stat 42:1977–1991, 1971) studied the weak law of large numbers for independent and non-identically distributed random variables. Using that result along with the missing information principle, we establish the consistency and asymptotic normality of maximum likelihood estimators based on progressively Type-II censored samples.
