Abstract

Based on a type-2 censored-sample we consider a likelihood-based inference for the reliability parameter R(t) of the location and scale exponential distribution. More specifically, we derive the profile and marginal likelihoods of R(t). A numerical example is presented demonstrating the flavor of results that can be obtained by likelihood-based methods.
