ORDERING CONDITIONAL DISTRIBUTIONS OF GENERALIZED ORDER STATISTICS (original) (raw)

Abstract

The concept of generalized order statistics was introduced as a unified approach to a variety of models of ordered random variables. The purpose of this article is to establish the usual stochastic and the likelihood ratio orderings of conditional distributions of generalized order statistics from one sample or two samples, strengthening and generalizing the main results in Khaledi and Shaked [15], and Li and Zhao . Some applications of the main results are also given.
