Abstract
In this paper, the Jeffreys priors for the step-stress partially accelerated life test with Type-II adaptive progressive hybrid censoring scheme data are considered. Given a density function family satisfied certain regularity conditions, the Fisher information matrix and Jeffreys priors are obtained. Taking the Weibull distribution as an example, the Jeffreys priors, posterior analysis and its permissibility are discussed. The results, which present that how the accelerated stress levels, censored size, hybrid censoring time and stress change time etc. affect the Jeffreys priors, are obtained. In addition, a theorem which shows there exists a relationship between single observation and multi observations for permissible priors is proved. Finally, using Metroplis with in Gibbs sampling algorithm, these factors are confirmed by computing the frequentist coverage probabilities.
