Reliability-Based Decision Making: A Comparison of Statistical Approaches
This paper considers the problem of choosing between an existing component whose reliability is well established and a new component that has an unknown reliability. In some scenarios, the designer may have some initial beliefs about the new component’s reliability. The designer may also have the opportunity to obtain more information and to update these beliefs. Then, based on these updated be...
متن کاملA comparison of statistical approaches for assessing reliability
Reliability estimates are useful for making design decisions. We consider the case where a designer must choose between an existing component whose reliability is well-established and a new component that has an unknown reliability. This paper compares the statistical approaches for updating reliability assessments based on additional simulation or experimental data. We consider four statistica...
متن کاملTreatment Switching: Statistical and Decision-making Challenges and Approaches.
OBJECTIVES Treatment switching refers to the situation in a randomized controlled trial where patients switch from their randomly assigned treatment onto an alternative. Often, switching is from the control group onto the experimental treatment. In this instance, a standard intention-to-treat analysis does not identify the true comparative effectiveness of the treatments under investigation. We...
متن کاملComparison of Decision-Making Methods Comparison of Decision-Making Methods
A comparison is made between the most commonly used decision-making method (AHP), and two methods developed by the authors (APM and CSM). It is shown that the newly developed methods do not change the correlations and types of inequalities between the global priorities of the alternatives when the number of alternatives changes. This differentiates them from the AHP, which does change them. Als...
متن کاملLNG decision making approaches compared.
Hazard zones associated with LNG handling activities have been a major point of contention in recent terminal development applications. Debate has reflected primarily worst case scenarios and discussion of these. This paper presents results from a maximum credible event approach. A comparison of results from several models either run by the authors or reported in the literature is presented. Wh...
