This paper presents methods of estimation of the parameters and acceleration factor for
Nadarajah–Haghighi distribution based on constant-stress partially accelerated life tests …

The competing risks problem is ubiquitous in different areas of life science, in engineering
and science where failure of one component causes to fail all the system. Studying life …

This article discusses different methods for estimating the shape and scale parameters of the
generalized inverted exponential distribution (GIED) and the acceleration factor in constant …

In this paper, we have considered the classical and Bayesian inference of the unknown
parameters of the lifetime distribution based on the observations obtained from a simple step …

In this paper, we consider the analysis of Burr XII distribution based on the competing risks
model under progressive Type-II censoring, where the amount of units withdrawn at each …

The widely used Weibull distribution could be generalized to be q‐Weibull distribution. To fill
out the gap in existing literature, the reliability is studied for q‐Weibull distribution with …

With the rapid development of smart grid construction in many countries, the coverage of
smart meters has been greatly improved, but how to ensure the accuracy of measuring the …

In this article, statistical inference is taken into account about two-parameter Lomax
distribution under adaptive progressive Type-II hybrid censored data in combination with …

In this paper, a multiple step-stress model is designed and analyzed when the data are Type-
I censored. Lifetime distributions of the experimental units at each stress level are assumed …

A maximum likelihood (ML) method is known to produce inconsistent estimators if the
likelihood function is unbounded from above, eg, in models with heavy-tailed distribution or …
