In this paper, we develop the reference priors for the scale and shape parameters in the nonregular Pareto distribution. We derive the reference priors as noninformative priors and prove the propriety of joint posterior distribution under the general priors including reference priors in the order of inferential importance. Through the simulation study, we compare the reference priors with respect to coverage probabilities of parameter of interest in a frequentist sense.

본 논문에서는 포아송분포 대 음이항분포, 그리고 정규분포, 이중지 수분포 대 코쉬분포에 대한 모형선택을 위하여 베이지안 방법을 사용한다. 각 모수에 대한 사전분포로는 무정보 부적절 사전분포의 가정 하에, 베이지안 모형선택을 위하여 O'Hagan (1995)의 부분적 베 이즈요인을 이용하였다. 실제자료와 모의 실험 자료의 분석을 통하여 부분적 베이즈요인의 유용성을 Berger와 Pericchi (1996, 1998)의 내재적 베이즈요인들과 함께 비교 검토해 본다.

Purpose: This paper explains how to obtain the Bayes estimates of the whole launch vehicle and of a vehicle stage, respectively, for a newly developed expendable launch vehicle. Methods: We determine the parameters of the beta prior distribution using the upper bound of the 60% Clopper-Pearson confidence interval of failure probability which is calculated from previous launch data considering the experience of the developer. Results: Probability that a launch vehicle developed from an inexperienced developer succeeds in the first launch is obtained by about one third, which is much smaller than that estimated from the previous research. Conclusion: The proposed approach provides a more conservative estimate than the previous noninformative prior, which is more reasonable especially for the initial reliability of a new vehicle which is developed by an inexperienced developer.

In this paper, we develop the matching priors and the reference priors for linear combination of the means under the normal populations with equal variances. We prove that the matching priors are actually the second order matching priors and reveal that the second order matching priors match alternative coverage probabilities up to the second order (Mukerjee and Reid, 1999) and also, are HPD matching priors. It turns out that among all of the reference priors, one-at-a-time reference prior satisfies a second order matching criterion. Our simulation study indicates that one-at-a-time reference prior performs better than the other reference priors in terms of matching the target coverage probabilities in a frequentist sense. We compute Bayesian credible intervals for linear combination of the means based on the reference priors.

The half logistic distribution has been used intensively in reliability and survival analysis especially when the data is censored. In this paper, we provide Bayesian estimation of the shape parameter and reliability function in the generalized half logistic distribution based on progressively Type-II censored data under various loss functions. We here consider conjugate prior and noninformative prior and corresponding posterior distributions are obtained. As an illustration, we examine the validity of our estimation using real data and simulated data.

The exponenetiated distribution has been used in reliability and survival analysis especially when the data is censored. In this paper, we derive Bayesian estimation of shape parameter and reliability function in the exponenetiated half triangle distribution based on Type-I hybrid censored data. Here we consider conjugate prior and noninformative prior and obtained corresponding posterior distributions. As an illustration, the mean square errors of the estimates are computed. Comparisons are made between these estimators using Monte Carlo simulation study.

In this paper, we develop the noninformative priors for the reliability in a stress-strength model where a strength X and a stress Y have independent exponential distributions with different scale parameters and a common location parameter. We derive the reference priors and prove the propriety of joint posterior distribution under the general prior including the reference priors. Through the simulation study, we show that the proposed reference priors match the target coverage probabilities in a frequentist sense.

Exponentiated distribution has been used in reliability and survival analysis especially when the data is censored. In this paper, we derive Bayesian estimation of the shape parameter, reliability function and failure rate function in the exponentiated distribution family based on Type-II right censored data. We here consider conjugate prior and noninformative prior and corresponding posterior distributions are obtained. As an illustration, the mean square errors of the estimates are computed. Comparisons are made between these estimators using Monte Carlo simulation study.

A simultaneous test criterion for multiple hypotheses concerning comparison of two multivariate normal populations is considered by using the so called Bayes factor method. Fully parametric frequentist approach for the test is not available and thus Bayesian criterion is pursued using a Bayes factor that eliminates its arbitrariness problem induced by improper priors. Specifically, the fractional Bayes factor (FBF) by O'Hagan (1995) is used to derive the criterion. Necessary theories involved in the derivation an computation of the criterion are provided. Finally, an illustrative simulation study is given to show the properties of the criterion.

본 논문은 스미스의 베이지안 소프트웨어 신뢰도 성장모형을 기반으로 테스팅 단계에서의 소프트웨어 신뢰도에 대한 두가지 베이즈 추정량에 그에 대한 평가 알고 리즘을 제안하는데 목적이 있다. 그 방법으로 사전정보 클래스로서 일양사전분포보다 더 일반적인 베타사전분포 BE(a.b)를 사용하였다. 그 연구 과정으로 베이지안 추정절 차에 있어서 제곱오차결손함수와 해리스결손함수를 고려하고, 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통 해서 소프트웨어 신뢰도에 대한 베이즈추정량들과 그에 따른 알고리즘을 이용하여 평 균자승오차 성능을 비교한다. 연구 결과로써 a가 크면 클수록 그리고 b가 적으면 적을 수록 해리스결손함수하의 소프트웨어 신뢰도의 베이즈추정량이 평균자승오차 성능의 관점에서는 더욱 유효하고, a 가 b보다 더 클 때 공액사전분포인 베타사전분포상의 소 프트웨어 신뢰도의 베이즈추정량이 비정보사전분포인 일양사전분포상에서 소프트웨어 신뢰도의 베이즈추정량보다는 성능이 더 좋다는 결론을 얻는다.
