A Concept of Generalized Order Statistics

Order statistics and record values appear in many statistical applications and are widely used in statistical modeling and inference. In addition to these wellknown models, several other models of ordered random variables, known and new ones, are introduced which can be effectively applied, e.g., in reliability theory. The main purpose of this book is to present a concept of generalized order statistics as a unified approach to a variety of models of ordered random variables. Num ...
