%0 Journal Article %T Optimal Design of Step Stress Partially Accelerated Life Test under Progressive Type-II Censored Data with Random Removal for Inverse Lomax Distribution %A Rania M.

Amer %J American Journal of Applied Mathematics and Statistics %D 2019 %R 10.12691/ajams-7-5-3 %X Step Stress-Partially Accelerated Life Test SS-PALT under Type-II progressive censoring with Binomial or uniform removal assuming Inverse Lomax distribution has been presented. A comparison between both removals is shown. The Newton-Raphson method is applied to obtain maximum likelihood estimators MLE of the parameters and the optimal stress-change time which minimizes the generalized asymptotic variance. A simulation study is performed to illustrate the statistical properties of the parameters %U http://www.sciepub.com/AJAMS/abstract/11122
