A hybrid censoring scheme is a mixture of Type-I and Type-II censoring schemes. In this review, we first discuss Type-I and Type-II hybrid censoring schemes and associated inferential issues. Next, we present details on developments regarding generalized hybrid censoring and unified hybrid...

Several univariate proportional reversed hazard models have been proposed in the literature. Recently, Kundu and Gupta (2010) proposed a class of bivariate models with proportional reversed hazard marginals. It is observed that the proposed bivariate proportional reversed hazard models have a...

Jorgensen <italic>et al</italic>. [14] introduced a three-parameter generalized inverse Gaussian distribution, which is a mixture of the inverse Gaussian distribution and length biased inverse Gaussian distribution. Also Birnbaum--Saunders distribution is a special case for <inline-formula> <inline-graphic xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:href="cjas_a_567251_o_ilm0001.gif"/> </inline-formula>, where <italic>p</italic> is the mixing parameter....

Marshall and Olkin (1997)  [14] provided a general method to introduce a parameter into a family of distributions and discussed in details about the exponential and Weibull families. They have also briefly introduced the bivariate extension, although not any properties or inferential issues...

Birnbaum and Saunders introduced in 1969 a two-parameter lifetime distribution which has been used quite successfully to model a wide variety of univariate positively skewed data. Diaz-Garcia and Leiva-Sanchez [8] proposed a generalized Birnbaum–Saunders distribution by using an elliptically...
