Abstract

In reliability engineering or medical studies, failure of units or individuals may occurring due to several failure modes which is known by competing risks model. In this paper, we have adopted a competing risks model under consideration that, the failure time has generalized inverted exponential distribution (GIED) and the failure modes are independent and partially observed. Under type-II progressive censoring scheme (type-II PCS), the experiment is designed as a quite popular scheme for collecting data specially, for a highly reliable product. The point estimates of the model parameters are formulated under classical approach (maximum likelihood and bootstrap) and Bayesian approach with respect to the symmetric squared error loss function. Also, the approximate confidence intervals under a large sample theory, bootstrap technique’s and Markov chain Monte Carlo method (MCMC) are constructed. The estimators are assessed and compared with building the simulation study. Analysis a set of type-II PCS competing risks mortality data for illustration purpose.
