Relationships for moments of the progressively Type-II right censored order statistics from the power Lomax distribution and the associated inference

In this paper, we establish several recurrence relations between single and product moments of progressively Type-II right censored order statistics from the power Lomax distribution. The relations enable the computation of all the single and product moments of progressively Type-II right censored order statistics for all sample sizes ?? and all censoring schemes (R1, R2, ..., Rm) m ≤ n in a simple recursive manner. The maximum likelihood approach is used for the estimation of the parameters and the reliability characteristic. A Monte Carlo simulation study has been conducted to compare the performance of the estimates for different censoring schemes.
