A Test for Weibull IFR/DFR Alternatives Based on Type-2 with Replacement Censored Samples

This article presents a test based on quadratic form using Type-2 with replacement-censored sample for testing exponentiality against weibull IFR/DFR alternative. The percentile points and powers are simulated. The proposed test is compared with that of Bain and Engelhardt (1986) test. An example based on Type-2 censoring is also discussed.

Test for Exponentiality Based on the Sample Covariance

This paper proposes a simple goodness-of-fit test based on the sample covariance. It is shown that this test is preferable for alternatives of increasing and unimodal failure rate. Critical values for various sample sizes are determined by means of Monte Carlo simulations. We compare the test based on the sample covariance with tests based on Hoeffding's maximum correlation. The usefulness o...

The graphical method for goodness of fit test in the inverse Weibull distribution based on multiply type-II censored samples

Many studies have considered a truncated and censored samples which are type-I, type-II and hybrid censoring scheme. The inverse Weibull distribution has been utilized for the analysis of life testing and reliability data. Also, this distribution is a very flexible distribution. The inverse Rayleigh distribution and inverse exponential distribution are a special case of the inverse Weibull dist...

Estimation of \(P(X>Y)\) for Weibull distribution based on hybrid censored samples

A Hybrid censoring scheme is mixture of Type-I and Type-II censoring schemes. Based on hybrid censored samples, this paper deals with the inference on R = P (X > Y ), when X and Y are two independent Weibull distributions with different scale parameters, but having the same shape parameter. The maximum likelihood estimator (MLE), and the approximate MLE (AMLE) of R are obtained. The asymptotic ...

A Goodness of Fit Test For Exponentiality Based on Lin-Wong Information

In this paper, we introduce a goodness of fit test for expo- nentiality based on Lin-Wong divergence measure. In order to estimate the divergence, we use a method similar to Vasicek’s method for estimat- ing the Shannon entropy. The critical values and the powers of the test are computed by Monte Carlo simulation. It is shown that the proposed test are competitive with other tests of exponentia...

Comparison of three Estimation Procedures for Weibull Distribution based on Progressive Type II Right Censored Data

In this paper, based on the progressive type II right censored data, we consider estimates of MLE and AMLE of scale and shape parameters of weibull distribution. Also a new type of parameter estimation, named inverse estimation, is introdued for both shape and scale parameters of weibull distribution which is used from order statistics properties in it. We use simulations and study the biases a...
