  • This paper presents different methods of Bayesian estimation like empirical Baysian estimation, Expectation of Bayesian estimation to estimate parameter and reliability function of two parameter bathtub-shaped lifetime distribution based on progressively firrst-failure-censored samples under minimum expected and LINEX loss functions. Comparisons among estimators are investigated through simulation study.

    Keywords: Progressive rst-failure-censoring scheme, Empirical Bayesian Estimation, E-Bayesian Estimation, Bathtub-Shaped lifetime distribution .
