Evidential inference and optimal sample size determination on the basis of record values and record times under random sampling scheme

چکیده
In this paper, the likelihood ratio approach is applied for measuring evidence provided by record data in favor of a hypothesis against an alternative under a random sampling scheme. Explicit expressions for probabilities of observing strong andweak evidences are derived. Asymptotic behaviors of these probabilities are investigated in a greater detail. Optimal sample size in which the substantial evidence reaches a desired level is determined. An illustrative example concerning records of times between consecutive telephone calls to a company’s switchboard is also analyzed.

Inference on Pr(X > Y ) Based on Record Values From the Power Hazard Rate Distribution
In this article, we consider the problem of estimating the stress-strength reliability $Pr (X > Y)$ based on upper record values when $X$ and $Y$ are two independent but not identically distributed random variables from the power hazard rate distribution with common scale parameter $k$. When the parameter $k$ is known, the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE), the approximate Bayes estimator and ...
متن کاملOptimal sample size and censoring scheme in progressively type II censoring based on Fisher information for the Pareto distribution
One of the most common censoring methods is the progressive type-II censoring. In this method of censoring, a total of $n$ units are placed on the test, and at the time of failure of each unit, some of the remaining units are randomly removed. This will continue to record $m$ failure times, where $m$ is a pre-determined value, and then the experiment ends. The problem of determining the optimal...
متن کاملOn Statistical Inference Based on Record Values
We develop methodology for conducting inference based on record values and record times derived from a sequence of independent and identically distributed random variables. The advantage of using information about record times as well as record values is stressed. This point is a subtle one, since if the sampling distribution F is continuous then there is no information at all about F in the re...
متن کاملOn Moments of the Concomitants of Classic Record Values and Nonparametric Upper Bounds for the Mean under the Farlie-Gumbel-Morgenstern Model
In a sequence of random variables, record values are observations that exceed or fall below the current extreme value.Now consider a sequence of pairwise random variables {(Xi,Yi), i>=1}, when the experimenter is interested in studying just thesequence of records of the first component, the second component associated with a record value of the first one is termed the concomitant of that ...
متن کاملAsymptotic Efficiencies of the MLE Based on Bivariate Record Values from Bivariate Normal Distribution
Abstract. Maximum likelihood (ML) estimation based on bivariate record data is considered as the general inference problem. Assume that the process of observing k records is repeated m times, independently. The asymptotic properties including consistency and asymptotic normality of the Maximum Likelihood (ML) estimates of parameters of the underlying distribution is then established, when m is ...
