Shrinkage Estimators for the Exponential Scale Parameter under Multiply Type II Censoring

We consider the problem of estimating the scale parameter of an exponential distribution under multiply type II censoring when a prior point guess of the parameter value is available. Shrinkage estimators are obtained from the approximate maximum likelihood estimators proposed in Singh et al. (2004)...
