In Campbell (1982) and Campbell & FOldes (1982) some asymptotic properties of bivariate empirical hazard processes under random censoring are given. Taking the representation of the empirical hazard process for bivariate randomly censored samples in Campbell (1982) as a starting point and restricting attention to strong properties, we obtain a speed of strong convergence for the weighted bivari...

In this article, we consider the problem of estimating the stress-strength reliability $Pr (X > Y)$ based on upper record values when $X$ and $Y$ are two independent but not identically distributed random variables from the power hazard rate distribution with common scale parameter $k$. When the parameter $k$ is known, the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE), the approximate Bayes estimator and ...

Cardiac arrest is a deadly condition caused by a sudden failure of the heart with an inhospital mortality rate of ∼ 80%. Therefore, the ability to accurately estimate patients at high risk of cardiac arrest is crucial for improving the survival rate. Existing research generally fails to utilize a patient’s temporal dynamics. In this paper, we present two dynamic cardiac risk estimation models, ...

∑ Loans are transactions over time, with risk fi Need for insurance fi MH problems Risk: Borrower needs insurance (limited liability), as even loans for good projects cannot be repaid in bad years. But lender cannot provide insurance as he cannot monitor genuine failures from false claims ∫ Problem of enforcement. (Moral Hazard (MH) in repayment). Limited liability induces risk taking behavior ...

The continuous push towards improved technologies allows designers to resolve the naval architecture problems with a higher reliability and to optimize designs. In this process it becomes increasingly important to recognize that most statutes and the Industry practice at large have depended on a few criteria to cover a very large number of hazards. Tools such as hazard identification and risk a...

the data set employed in this study was comprised of a number of 6,800 records of lamb’s longevity and their survival rate, collected from 1989 through 2009, from the lori-bakhtiari experimental flock at the shooli station in shahrekord, iran. the data were analyzed using linear models and proportional hazard models with weibull function. these models included fixed factors and direct additive ...

Abstract: In this paper, we discuss stochastic comparisons of lifetimes of series and parallel systems with heterogeneous Fréchet components in terms of the usual stochastic order, reversed hazard rate order and likelihood ratio order. The partial results established here extend some well-known results in the literature of Gupta et al. Specifically, first, we generalize the result of Theorem 2 ...
