Abstract
Consider number of independent populations, following two parameter exponential distributions, sharing a common location parameter and unequal scale parameters. The location and scale parameters are assumed to be unknown. We focus into the study of estimation of the hazard rate of a selected population with respect to entropy loss function. Define , where denotes the sample mean of the i-th sample and Y represents the minimum observation of all the samples, for We select the population with the largest . In order to obtain improved estimator, Brewster-Zidek technique is implemented. Further, dominating estimators upon the improved ones are obtained using differential inequality approach. A numerical study of the risk improvements for the proposed estimators has been carried out.
