One-sample Bayesian prediction intervals based on progressively type-II censored data from the half-logistic distribution under progressive stress model

Based on progressively type-II censored sample, we discuss Bayesian interval prediction under progressive stress accelerated life tests. The lifetime of a unit under use condition stress is assumed to follow the half-logistic distribution with a scale parameter satisfying the inverse power law. Prediction bounds of future order statistics are obtained. A simulation study is performed and numerical computations are carried out, based on two different progressive censoring schemes. The coverage probabilities and average interval lengths of the confidence intervals are computed via a Monte Carlo simulation.
