Abstract

Uniformly distributed failure-times are censored by independent censoring times whose distribution is not specified. The sample maximum and the maximum likelihood estimator are considered as possible estimators for the unknown upper bound of the uniform distribution. The properties of these estimators are studied analytically and by simulations.
