The advantage of progressive censoring is that it terminates the test rapidly and includes at least some extreme life spans in the sample data . In the design of experiments for estimating statistical models , optimal designs allow parameters to be estimated without bias and with minimum - variance UR - http://172.23.153.220/th.pdf ER -
