Bayesian Estimation of Component Reliability Using Progressively Censored Masked System Lifetime Data from Rayleigh Distribution
نویسندگان
چکیده
Progressive type-II censoring scheme is a very popular scheme adopted by contributors in the fields of reliability and life-testing. In this paper, we consider a problem when this scheme is applied to a life-testing experiment in which each unit under test is a series system and the investigator is interested in obtaining reliability estimates of individual components. Assuming the components lifetimes to be Rayleigh distribution, we present maximum likelihood and Bayesian approaches to estimate the reliability measures of individual components using masked system lifetime data. The Bayes estimates are evaluated using Lindley’s approximation and Gibbs Sampler. The results are illustrated with the help of simulation study.

Bayesian Estimation of Reliability of the Electronic Components Using Censored Data from Weibull Distribution: Different Prior Distributions
The Weibull distribution has been widely used in survival and engineering reliability analysis. In life testing experiments is fairly common practice to terminate the experiment before all the items have failed, that means the data are censored. Thus, the main objective of this paper is to estimate the reliability function of the Weibull distribution with uncensored and censored data by using B...
متن کاملBayesian Two-Sample Prediction with Progressively Type-II Censored Data for Some Lifetime Models
Prediction on the basis of censored data is very important topic in many fields including medical and engineering sciences. In this paper, based on progressive Type-II right censoring scheme, we will discuss Bayesian two-sample prediction. A general form for lifetime model including some well known and useful models such asWeibull and Pareto is considered for obtaining prediction bounds ...
متن کاملClassic and Bayes Shrinkage Estimation in Rayleigh Distribution Using a Point Guess Based on Censored Data
Introduction In classical methods of statistics, the parameter of interest is estimated based on a random sample using natural estimators such as maximum likelihood or unbiased estimators (sample information). In practice, the researcher has a prior information about the parameter in the form of a point guess value. Information in the guess value is called as nonsample information. Thomp...
متن کاملClassical and Bayesian Inference in Two Parameter Exponential Distribution with Randomly Censored Data
Abstract. This paper deals with the classical and Bayesian estimation for two parameter exponential distribution having scale and location parameters with randomly censored data. The censoring time is also assumed to follow a two parameter exponential distribution with different scale but same location parameter. The main stress is on the location parameter in this paper. This parameter has not...
متن کاملReliability Estimations of Components in Series System Using Type-II Censored and Masked Life Data
This paper introduces estimations of reliabilities index for Rayleigh components in a series system using Type-II censored and masked system life data. We derive the Maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) of the unknown parameters for Rayleigh components and reliabilities index. In view of the limitation of MLE under complete masked case, we employ the Bayes approach. Bayes estimations of the Rayl...
