Abstract

Thomas and Wilson (Technometrics 14 (1972) 679) developed a computational method for calculating the single and product moments of order statistics from progressively censored samples by making use of the corresponding moments of the usual order statistics. The absence of an explicit representation for the marginal and joint density function of order statistics under progressive censoring makes their method extremely tedious. By deriving the required marginal and joint density functions in explicit form, we obtain an alternative, highly efficient, method for computing the desired moments.
