Stochastic Order and MLE of the Mean of the Exponential Distribution
Abstract
The maximum likelihood estimator of the mean of the exponential distribution, based on various data structures has been studied extensively. However, the order preserving property of these estimators is not found in the literature. This article discusses this property. Suppose that two samples of the same size are drawn from two independent exponential populations that have different means. It is shown in this article that the regular …
