A novel Weighted Exponential-Lindley distribution with Bayesian estimation under progressive Type-II censoring and a Bayesian-Calibrated Variational Autoencoder for survival prediction
One-parameter lifetime models, such as the exponential and Lindley distributions, and two-parameter extensions such as the weighted Lindley distribution cannot separately control tail weight and dispersion, since a single shape parameter governs both. We address this with the Weighted Exponential-Lindley (WEL) distribu...
