In this paper, we introduce an extended form of the inverse power Lomax model via Marshall-Olkin approach. We call it the Marshall-Olkin inverse power Lomax (MOIPL) distribution. The four- parameter MOIPL distribution is very flexible which contains some former and new models. Vital properties of the MOIPL distribution are affirmed. Maximum likelihood estimators and approximate confidence intervals are considered under Type I censored samples. Maximum likelihood estimates are evaluated according to simulation study. Bayesian estimators as well as Bayesian credible intervals under symmetric loss function are obtained via Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) approach. Finally, the flexibility of the new model is analyzed by means of two real data sets. It is found that the MOIPL model provides closer fits than some other models based on the selected criteria.

The estimation problem of expected time to failure of units is studied in a discrete set up. A simple step-stress accelerated life testing is considered with a Type-I censored sample from geometric distribution that is a commonly used distribution to model the lifetime of a device in discrete case. Maximum likelihood estimators as well as the associated distributions are derived. Exact, approximate and bootstrap approaches construct confidence intervals that are compared via a simulation study. Optimal confidence intervals are suggested in view of the expected width and coverage probability criteria. An illustrative example is also presented to explain the results of the paper. Finally, some conclusions are stated.

The hazard function is a non-negative function that measures the propensity of failure in the immediate furture, and is frequently used as a decision criterion, especially in replacement decisions. In this paper, we compute approximate confidence intervals for the lognormal hazard function under Type I censored data, and show how to choose the sample size needed to estimate a point on the hazard function with a specified degree of precision. Also we provide a table that can be used to compute the sample size.

제품의 수명은 품질을 나타내는 중요한 특성치이다. 이상적으로는 모든 표본의 수명자료를 측정하는 것이 가장 바람직하나, 이를 측정하는데 많은 시간과 비용이 소요되는 경우 중도절단된 자료로 표본을 구성하는 경우가 많이 발생한다. 이 논문에서는 제1형의 우측중도절단된 수명자료가 와이블 분포를 따를 경우 척도모수의 감소를 탐지하는 이항 누적합 관리도 절차를 제안하였다. 모의실험에서 평균런길이를 이용하여 제안된 관리도 절차의 효율을 이전에 연구된 누적합 관리도 절차와 비교하였는데, 그 결과 중도절단율이 높을 경우와 표본의 크기가 적은 경우 제안된 이항 누적합 관리도가 더 효율적임을 알 수 있었다.

In this paper, we propose some estimators for the extreme value distribution based on the interval method and mid-point approximation method from the progressive Type-I interval censored sample. Because log-likelihood function is a non-linear function, we use a Taylor series expansion to derive approximate likelihood equations. We compare the proposed estimators in terms of the mean squared error by using the Monte Carlo simulation.

Panel data sets have been developed in various areas, and many recent studies have analyzed panel, or longitudinal data sets. Maximum likelihood (ML) may be the most common statistical method for analyzing panel data models; however, the inference based on the ML estimate will have an inflated Type I error because the ML method tends to give a downwardly biased estimate of variance components when the sample size is small. The under estimation could be severe when data is incomplete. This paper proposes the restricted maximum likelihood (REML) method for a random effects panel data model with a censored dependent variable. Note that the likelihood function of the model is complex in that it includes a multidimensional integral. Many authors proposed to use integral approximation methods for the computation of likelihood function; however, it is well known that integral approximation methods are inadequate for high dimensional integrals in practice. This paper introduces to use the moments of truncated multivariate normal random vector for the calculation of multidimensional integral. In addition, a proper asymptotic standard error of REML estimate is given.

Type I hybrid censoring scheme is the combination of the Type I and Type II censoring scheme introduced by Epstein (1954). Epstein considered a hybrid censoring sampling scheme in which the life testing experiment is terminated at a random time $T^*$ which is the time that happens rst among the following two; time of the kth unit is observed or time of the experiment length set in advance. The likelihood function of this scheme from the Rayleigh distribution cannot be solved in a explicit solution and thus we approximate the function by the Taylor series expansion. In this process, we propose four dierent methods of expansion skill.

When we have an i.i.d. sample of size n from a continuous distribution, the distribution truncated on the left at the rth order statistic plays an important role in the theoretical analysis of the Type 2 censored data. The charaterization of distributions by the average of the conditional expectation and the average of the conditional information concerning the truncated distribution is studied here.

와이블 분포는 제품의 물리적 특성을 잘 반영하고 고장률이 증가하거나 감소하는 경우 모두를 나타낼 수 있기 때문에 재품의 수명을 모델링할 때 가장 많이 사용되는 분포이다. 일반적으로 수명시험에서 표본의 모든 제품의 수명이 측정될 때까지 시험을 진행하는 것이 원칙이지만 여러 가지 시간적 또는 비용적인 제약으로 인해 시험을 중도절단 하는 경우가 빈번하게 발생한다. 이 논문에서는 제품의 수명 데이터가 와이블 분포를 따르고 제1형 우측중도절단된 경우 척도모수의 변화를 탐지하는 Weibull generalized likelihood ratio (GLR) 관리도 절차를 제안하였다. 모의실험을 실시하여 제안한 GLR 관리도와 기존에 제안된 두 가지 CUSUM 관리도의 성능을 average run length (ARL)을 이용하여 비교하였다. 그 결과 이 논문에서 제안한 GLR 관리도는 형상모수와 표본의 크기가 크고 중도절단율이 아주 높지 않은 경우 척도모수의 다양한 변화를 탐지하는데 효율적임을 알 수 있었다.
