Inference for a Shared Random-Scale Frailty Birnbaum–Saunders Model Under Progressive Type-II Censoring

This paper introduces a shared gamma frailty Birnbaum–Saunders model for clustered lifetime data under progressive Type-II censoring. The frailty term acts on the scale parameter and accounts for unobserved variation among clusters. Likelihood-based and Bayesian formulations are...
