  • Abstract
    Moments of the likelihood ratio test (LRT) criterion for testing the equality of several exponential distributions based on type-II censored samples of unequal size are obtained. They are used to obtain the distribution in a computational form for the first time. A table of selected significe points of LRT is presented.
