Statistical Inferences about Parameters of the Pseudo Lindley Distribution with Acceptance Sampling Plans

Abstract

Different non-Bayesian and Bayesian techniques were used to estimate the pseudo-Lindley (PsL) distribution’s parameters in this study. To derive Bayesian estimators, one must assume appropriate priors on the parameters and use loss functions such as squared error (SE), general entropy (GE), and linear-exponential (LINEX). Since no closed-form solutions are accessible for Bayes estimates under these loss functions, the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) approach was used. Simulation studies were conducted to evaluate the estimators’ performance under the given loss functions. Furthermore, we exhibited the adaptability and practicality of the PsL distribution through real-world data applications, which is essential for evaluating the various estimation techniques. Also, the acceptance sampling plans were developed in this work for items whose lifespans approximate the PsL distribution.
