Abstract
In life and dosage-response studies, progressively censored samples arise when at various stages of an experiment, some though not all of the surviving sample specimens are eliminated from further observation. The sample specimens remaining after each stage of censoring are continued under observation until failure or until a subsequent stage of censoring. In this paper maximum likelihood estimators of the distribution parameters are derived for the normal, and for the exponential distribution when samples are progressively censored.Keywords
