Abstract :
Bayesian predictive density functions, which are necessary to obtain bounds for predictive intervals of future order statistics, are obtained when the population density is a finite mixture of general components. Such components include, among others, the Weibull (exponential and Rayleigh as special cases), compound Weibull (three-parameter Burr type XII), Pareto, beta, Gompertz and compound Gompertz distributions. The prior belief of the experimenter is measured by a general distribution that was suggested by AL-Hussaini (J. Statist. Plann. Inf. 79 (1999b) 79). Applications to finite mixtures of Weibull and Burr type XII components are illustrated and comparison is made, in the special cases of the exponential and Pareto type II components, with previous results.
