In this paper, we study the estimation problems for the two-parameter
bathtub-shaped lifetime distribution based on upper record values. Exact condifence intervals and exact confidence regions for the parameters are
constructed. Approximate confidence intervals and regions
are also dis
ussed based on the asymptoti
normality of the maximum
likelihood estimators. A simulation study is done for the performance of all proposed
confidence intervals and regions. Two numerical examples with real data set and simulated data, are presented to illustrate
the methods proposed here.
