We provide simple computational formulas of both expected termination time and Fisher information of the flexible progressive censoring scheme proposed by Bairamov and Parsi (2011). Then, the design and planning of the flexible progressive censoring schemes are discussed with illustrative examples.

We extend the result of Efron and Johnstone (1990), who expressed the Fisher information in terms of the hazard function, to express the Fisher information in order statistics as an expectation of the incomplete integral of the hazard function. Then we obtain the the asymptotic Fisher...

Some extensions of entropy and KL information to the survival function have been recently proposed. We first compare some extensions of KL information and provide a criterion in choosing one among those extensions. Then we study moment constraints for maximum cumulative residual entropy...

Cumulative residual entropy has been proposed by Rao et al. (2004). In this paper, we first show a representation of the cumulative residual entropy of the first r order statistics as a single integral. Then we provide some related results including recurrence relations, identity and...

The extensions of the entropy and Kullback–Leibler (KL) information to the cumulative distribution function have been recently studied because they are well defined on the empirical distribution function. In this paper, we generalize the extended KL information to the censored case and propose...

A hybrid censoring scheme is a mixture of Type-I and Type-II censoring schemes. In this paper, we present two interesting results which are useful in deriving the Fisher information along with the expected censoring times and expected numbers of failures in hybrid and generalized hybrid...
