Partial accelerated life tests (PALTs) are employed when the results of accelerated life testing cannot be extended to usage circumstances. This work discusses the challenge of different estimating strategies in constant PALT with complete data. The lifetime distribution of the test item is assumed to follow the power half-logistic distribution.

In this study, joint hybrid censored type I and type II samples from exponential populations were examined to determine the influence of the parameter on the estimation results. To investigate the selection effects of the learning rate and the loss parameters on the estimation results, we considered two additional loss functions in the Bayesian approach: the linear and the generalized entropy loss functions.

In this paper, we apply this censoring sampling approach to improve the estimation of the parameter via a novel five-parameter expansion distribution, which we call the generalized Weibull-modified Weibull model. The new distribution contains five parameters and is therefore very flexible in terms of accommodating different types of data.

The present work aims to study some additional properties of this measure and then initiate its connection with the usual stochastic order. Some other properties of the dynamical version of this measure are also investigated.

The TPXGD is investigated in different areas and generalized to other forms by many of the researchers. The acceptance sampling plans are one of the main important statistical tools in production and engineering fields.

In this paper, we first investigate some variability properties this measure has and then establish its connection to other dispersion measures. Moreover, we prove under sufficient conditions that this measure preserves the location-independent riskier order.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFThe fractional generalized cumulative residual entropy (FGCRE) has been introduced recently as a novel uncertainty measure which can be compared with the fractional Shannon entropy. Various properties of the FGCRE have been studied in the literature. In this paper, further results for this measure are obtained.
