Abstract

In this paper some recurrence relations satisfied by single and product moments of progressive Type-II right censored order statistics from Hjorth distribution have been obtained. Then we use these results to compute the moments for all sample sizes and all censoring schemes (R1,R2,...,Rm),m ≤ n, which allow us to obtain BLUEs of location and scale parameters based on progressive type-II right censored samples.
