On the Kullback–Leibler information of hybrid censored data

ABSTRACT: A hybrid censoring is a mixture of Type I and Type II censoring where the experiment terminates when either rth failure or predetermined censoring time comes first or later. In this article, we consider order statistics of the Type I censored data and provide a simple expression for their Kullback–Leibler (KL) information. Then, we provide the expressions for the KL information of the Type I and Type II hybrid censored data.
