An Estimation of the Entropy for a Rayleigh Distribution Based on Doubly-Generalized Type-II Hybrid Censored Samples

In this paper, based on a doubly generalized Type II censored sample, the maximum likelihood estimators (MLEs), the approximate MLE and the Bayes estimator for the entropy of the Rayleigh distribution are derived. We compare the entropy estimators’ root mean squared error (RMSE), bias and Kullback–L...
