Popis: The inverse Weibull distribution (IWD) can be applied to a various situations, including applications in reliability and medicine. In a reliability and medicine test, it is generally known that the results of test units may not be recorded. Recently, the generalized adaptive progressive hybrid censoring (GAPHC) scheme was introduced. In this paper, therefore, we consider the classical estimators (maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) and maximum product spacings estimator (MPSE)) and Bayes estimators (BayEsts) of the uncertainty measure of the IWD under GAPHC scheme. We derive the BayEsts of the uncertainty measure based on flexible (symmetrical and asymmetrical) priors. Additionally, we derive the Bayes estimators using the Tierney and Kadane approximation (TiKa) and importance sampling methods. In particular, the importance sampling method is used to obtain the credible interval for the uncertainty measure of the IWD under the GAPHC scheme. To compare the proposed estimators (classical and BayEsts), the Monte Carlo simulation method is conducted. Finally, the real dataset based on GAPHC scheme is analyzed.
