In this paper, E-Bayesian estimation of the scale parameter, reliability and hazard rate functions of Chen distribution are considered when a sample is obtained from a type-I censoring scheme. The E-Bayesian estimators are obtained based on the balanced squared error loss function and using the gamma distribution as a conjugate prior for the unknown scale parameter. Also, the E-Bayesian estimators are derived using three different distributions for the hyper-parameters. Some properties of E-Bayesian estimators based on balanced squared error loss function are discussed. A simulation study is performed to compare the efficiencies of different estimators in terms of minimum mean squared errors. Finally, a real data set is analyzed to illustrate the applicability of the proposed estimators.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
