Abstract

Based on a progressively type-II censored sample from the exponential distribution with unknown location and scale parameter, confidence bands are proposed for the underlying distribution function by using confidence regions for the parameters and Kolmogorov–Smirnov type statistics. Simple explicit representations for the boundaries and for the coverage probabilities of the confidence bands are analytically derived, and the performance of the bands is compared in terms of band width and area by means of a data example. As a by-product, a novel confidence region for the location-scale parameter is obtained. Extensions of the results to related models for ordered data, such as sequential order statistics, as well as to other underlying location-scale families of distributions are discussed.
