Interval prediction of order statistics based on records by employing inter-record times

A study under two parameter exponential distribution

Abstract

In this note, we propose a parametric inferential procedure for predicting future order statistics, based on record values, which takes inter-record times into account. We utilize the additional information contained in inter-record times for predicting future order statistics on the basis of observed record values from an independent sample. The two parameter exponential distribution is assumed to be the underlying distribution.
