Bayesian inference using record values from Rayleigh model with application

In this article, based on a set of upper record values from a Rayleigh distribution, Bayesian and non-Bayesian approaches have been used to obtain the estimators of the parameter, and some lifetime parameters such as the reliability and hazard functions. Bayes estimators have been developed under symmetric (squared error) and asymmetric (LINEX and general entropy (GE)) loss functions. These estimators are derived using the informative and non-informative prior distributions for σ. We compare the performance of the presented Bayes estimators with known, non-Bayesian, estimators such as the maximum likelihood (ML) and the best linear unbiased (BLU) estimators. We show that Bayes estimators under the asymmetric loss functions are superior to both the ML and BLU estimators. The highest posterior density (HPD) intervals for the Rayleigh parameter and its reliability and hazard functions are presented. Also, Bayesian prediction intervals of the future record values are obtained and discussed. Finally, practical examples using real record values are given to illustrate the application of the results.

E-Bayesian estimation for the Burr type XII model based on type-2 censoring

This paper is concerned with using the E-Bayesian method [M. Han, Applied Mathematical Modeling (2009) 1915–1922] for computing estimates for the parameter and reliability function of the Burr type XII distribution based on type-2 censored samples. The estimates are obtained based on squared error and LINEX loss functions. A comparison between the new method and the corresponding Bayes and maximum likelihood techniques is made using the Monte Carlo simulation.     

��I�ͻ�Ͻ�β��ָ��——�������ֲ�����ʧЧģ�͵�ͳ�Ʒ���

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.     

Parameter estimation of inverse Lindley distribution for Type-I censored data

In life testing experiments, Type-I censoring scheme has been widely used due to its simplicity and poise with considerable gain in the completion time of an experiment. This article deals with the parameter estimation of inverse Lindley distribution when the data is Type-I censored. Estimates have been obtained under both the classical and Bayesian paradigm. In the classical scenario, estimates based on maximum likelihood and maximum product of spacings coupled with their 95% asymptotic confidence interval have been obtained. Under the Bayesian set up, the point estimate is obtained by considering squared error loss function using Markov Chain Monte Carlo technique and highest posterior density intervals based on these samples are reckoned. The performance of above mentioned techniques are evaluated on the basis of their simulated risks. Further, a real data set is analysed for appraisal of aforementioned estimation techniques under the specified censoring scheme.     

Bayesian estimation for generalized exponential distribution based on progressive type-I interval censoring

In this study, we consider the Bayesian estimation of unknown parameters and reliability function of the generalized exponential distribution based on progressive type-I interval censoring. The Bayesian estimates of parameters and reliability function cannot be obtained as explicit forms by applying squared error loss and Linex loss functions, respectively; thus, we present the Lindley’s approximation to discuss these estimations. Then, the Bayesian estimates are compared with the maximum likelihood estimates by using the Monte Carlo simulations.     

Estimators of the regression parameters of the zeta distribution

The zeta distribution with regression parameters has been rarely used in statistics because of the difficulty of estimating the parameters by traditional maximum likelihood. We propose an alternative method for estimating the parameters based on an iteratively reweighted least-squares algorithm. The quadratic distance estimator (QDE) obtained is consistent, asymptotically unbiased and normally distributed; the estimate can also serve as the initial value required by an algorithm to maximize the likelihood function. We illustrate the method with a numerical example from the insurance literature; we compare the values of the estimates obtained by the quadratic distance and maximum likelihood methods and their approximate variance–covariance matrix. Finally, we calculate the bias, variance and the asymptotic efficiency of the QDE compared to the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) for some values of the parameters.     

Logspline Density Estimation for Censored Data

Abstract

Logspline density estimation is developed for data that may be right censored, left censored, or interval censored. A fully automatic method, which involves the maximum likelihood method and may involve stepwise knot deletion and either the Akaike information criterion (AIC) or Bayesian information criterion (BIC), is used to determine the estimate. In solving the maximum likelihood equations, the Newton–Raphson method is augmented by occasional searches in the direction of steepest ascent. Also, a user interface based on S is described for obtaining estimates of the density function, distribution function, and quantile function and for generating a random sample from the fitted distribution.
