Expected Bayesian estimation for exponential model based on simple step stress with Type-I hybrid censored data

The procedure of selecting the values of hyper-parameters for prior distributions in Bayesian estimate has produced many problems and has drawn the attention of many authors, therefore the expected Bayesian (E-Bayesian) estimation method to overcome these problems. These approaches are used based on the step-stress acceleration model under the Exponential Type-I hybrid censored data in this study. The values of the distribution parameters are derived. To compare the E-Bayesian estimates to the other estimates, a comparative study was conducted using the simulation research. Four different loss functions are used to generate the Bayesian and E-Bayesian estimators. In addition, three alternative hyper-parameter distributions were used in E-Bayesian estimation. Finally, a real-world data example is examined for demonstration and comparative purposes.
