The Exponentiated Type Distributions

Gupta et al. [Commun. Stat., Theory Methods 27, 887–904, 1998] introduced the exponentiated exponential distribution as a generalization of the standard exponential distribution. In this paper, we introduce four more exponentiated type distributions that generalize the standard gamma, standard Weibull, standard Gumbel and the standard Fréchet distributions in the same way the exponentiated exponential distribution generalizes the standard exponential distribution. A treatment of the mathematical properties is provided for each distribution.     

An algorithm for mean residual life computation of (n − k + 1)-out-of-n systems: An application of exponentiated Weibull distribution

In this paper, we establish an algorithm for the computation of the mean residual life of a (n − k + 1)-out-of-n system in the case of independent but not necessarily identically distributed lifetimes of the components. An application for the exponentiated Weibull distribution is given to study the effect of various parameters on the mean residual life of the system. Also the relationship between the mean residual life for the system and that of its components is investigated.     

Exponentiated generalized linear exponential distribution

A new generalization of the linear exponential distribution is recently proposed by Mahmoud and Alam [1], called as the generalized linear exponential distribution. Another generalization of the linear exponential was introduced by Sarhan and Kundu  and , named as the generalized linear failure rate distribution. This paper proposes a more generalization of the linear exponential distribution which generalizes the two. We refer to this new generalization as the exponentiated generalized linear exponential distribution. The new distribution is important since it contains as special sub-models some widely well known distributions in addition to the above two models, such as the exponentiated Weibull distribution among many others. It also provides more flexibility to analyze complex real data sets. We study some statistical properties for the new distribution. We discuss maximum likelihood estimation of the distribution parameters. Three real data sets are analyzed using the new distribution, which show that the exponentiated generalized linear exponential distribution can be used quite effectively in analyzing real lifetime data.     

Stochastic comparison of aggregate claim amounts between two heterogeneous portfolios and its applications

The aggregate claim amount in a particular time period is a quantity of fundamental importance for proper management of an insurance company and also for pricing of insurance coverages. In this paper, we show that the proportional hazard rates (PHR) model, which includes some well-known distributions such as exponential, Weibull and Pareto distributions, can be used as the aggregate claim amount distribution. We also present some conditions for the use of exponentiated Weibull distribution as the claim amount distribution. The results established here complete and extend the well-known result of Khaledi and Ahmadi (2008).     

Design of accelerated life test sampling plans with a nonconstant shape parameter

Accelerated life test sampling plans (ALTSPs) provide information quickly on the lifetime distribution of products by testing them at higher-than-usual stress level to induce early failures and reduce the testing efforts. In the traditional design of ALTSPs for Weibull distribution, it is assumed that the shape parameter remains constant over all stress levels. This paper extends the existing design of ALTSPs to Weibull distribution with a nonconstant shape parameter and presents two types of ALTSPs; time-censored and failure-censored. Optimum ALTSPs which satisfy the producer’s and consumer’s risk requirements and minimize the asymptotic variance of the test statistic for deciding the lot acceptability are obtained. The properties of the proposed ALTSPs and the effects of errors in pre-estimate of the design parameters are also investigated.

Design of progressively censored group sampling plans for Weibull distributions: An optimization problem

Optimization algorithms provides efficient solutions to many statistical problems. Essentially, the design of sampling plans for lot acceptance purposes is an optimization problem with several constraints, usually related to the quality levels required by the producer and the consumer. An optimal acceptance sampling plan is developed in this paper for the Weibull distribution with unknown scale parameter. The proposed plan combines grouping of items, sudden death testing in each group and progressive group removals, and its decision criterion is based on the uniformly most powerful life test. A mixed integer programming problem is first solved for determining the minimum number of failures required and the corresponding acceptance constant. The optimal number of groups is then obtained by minimizing a balanced estimation of the expected test cost. Excellent approximately optimal solutions are also provided in closed-forms. The sampling plan is considerably flexible and allows to save experimental time and cost. In general, our methodology achieves solutions that are quite robust to small variations in the Weibull shape parameter. A numerical example about a manufacturing process of gyroscopes is included for illustration.     

A lifetime model with increasing failure rate

This paper deals with a new two-parameter lifetime distribution with increasing failure rate. This distribution is constructed as a distribution of a random sum of independent exponential random variables when the sample size has a zero truncated binomial distribution. Various statistical properties of the distribution are derived. We estimate the parameters by maximum likelihood and obtain the Fisher information matrix. Simulation studies show the performance of the estimators. Also, estimation of the parameters is considered in the presence of censoring. A real data set is analyzed for illustrative purposes and it is noted that the distribution is a good competitor to the gamma, Weibull, exponentiated exponential, weighted exponential and Poisson-exponential distributions for this data set.

In this paper, we investigate a competing risks model based on exponentiated Weibull distribution under Type-I progressively hybrid censoring scheme. To estimate the unknown parameters and reliability function, the maximum likelihood estimators and asymptotic confidence intervals are derived. Since Bayesian posterior density functions cannot be given in closed forms, we adopt Markov chain Monte Carlo method to calculate approximate Bayes estimators and highest posterior density credible intervals. To illustrate the estimation methods, a simulation study is carried out with numerical results. It is concluded that the maximum likelihood estimation and Bayesian estimation can be used for statistical inference in competing risks model under Type-I progressively hybrid censoring scheme.     

Reliability tests for Weibull distribution with variational shape parameter based on sudden death lifetime data

In the traditional design of reliability tests for assuring the mean time to failure (MTTF) in Weibull distribution with shape and scale parameters, it has been assumed that the shape parameter in the acceptable and rejectable populations is the same fixed number. For the purpose of expanding applicability of the reliability testing, Hisada and Arizono have developed a reliability sampling scheme for assuring MTTF in the Weibull distribution under the conditions that shape parameters in the both populations do not necessarily coincide, and are specified as interval values, respectively. Then, their reliability test is designed using the complete lifetime data. In general, the reliability testing based on the complete lifetime data requires the long testing time. As a consequence, the testing cost becomes sometimes expensive. In this paper, for the purpose of an economical plan of the reliability test, we consider the sudden death procedure for assuring MTTF in Weibull distribution with variational shape parameter.
