Maximum Likelihood Estimation in Truncated Samples
Maximum Likelihood Estimation in Truncated Samples
In this paper we consider the problem of estimation of parameters from a sample in which only the first $r$ (of $n$) ordered observations are known. If $r = \lbrack qn \rbrack, 0 < q < 1$, it is shown under mild regularity conditions, for the case of one parameter, …
