The Weibull distribution remains an indispensable tool in reliability engineering and lifetime analysis, offering flexibility for modelling diverse failure behaviours. Modern parameter estimation ...
For ordered samples of size n, with proportions q1 and q2 of the sample values censored from below and from above, respectively, from three-parameter Weibull and gamma populations, expressions are ...
This example considers a data set given in Lawless (1982). The data are the number of days it took rats painted with a carcinogen to develop carcinoma. The last two observations are censored. Maximum ...
Maximum likelihood estimation of the parameters of a statistical model involves maximizing the likelihood or, equivalently, the log likelihood with respect to the parameters. The parameter values at ...
