Mixture representation for order statistics from INID progressive censoring and its applications. (English) Zbl 1151.60306

Summary: A mixture representation for the joint distribution function of progressively Type-II censored order statistics from heterogeneous distributions is established. Applications of this representation to stochastic orderings and inequalities are then illustrated.
