چکیده

In this paper, we study the estimation problems for the two-parameter bathtub-shaped lifetime distribution based on upper record values. Exact confidence intervals and exact joint confidence regions for the parameters are constructed. Approximate confidence intervals and regions are also discussed based on the asymptotic normality of the maximum likelihood estimators. A simulation study is done for the performance of all proposed confidence intervals and regions. Two numerical examples with real data set and simulated data, are presented to illustrate the methods proposed here.

Optimal parameter estimation of the two-parameter bathtub-shaped lifetime distribution based on a type II right censored sample

This paper proposes different types of exact (or approximate) confidence intervals and exact (or approximate) joint confidence regions for the parameters of the twoparameter lifetime distribution with bathtub-shaped or increasing failure rate (IFR) function based on a type II right censored sample. Moreover, we provide optimal criteria for finding a best exact (or approximate) confidence interv...

Piecewise modelling and parameter estimation of repairable system failure rate

Lifetime failure data usually presents a bathtub-shaped failure rate, and random failure phase dominates its life cycle. Relatively large errors always existed when single distribution model is used for analysis and modelling. Therefore, a bathtub-shaped reliability model based on piecewise intensity function was proposed for repairable system. Parameter estimation was studied by using maximum ...
