Bayes Estimation of the Lifetime Parameters for the Exponential Distribution

Ahmed A. Abu-Taleb, Mahmoud M. Smadi and Ameen J. Alawneh

Abstract

Bayes estimation for the parameters of the lifetime distribution when both survival and censoring time are exponentially distributed were studied. The marginal posteriors, Bayes estimates and credible sets were derived using conjugate priors.
