Stochastic Comparisons of Random Extremes from non-identical Random Variables

Statistics Theory 2024-03-08 v2 Statistics Theory

Abstract

We propose some new results on the comparison of the minimum or maximum order statistic from a random number of non-identical random variables. Under the non-identical set-up, with certain conditions, we prove that random minimum (maximum) of one system dominates the other in hazard rate (reversed hazard rate) order. Further, we prove variation diminishing property (Karlin [8]) for all possible restrictions to derive the new results.
