This paper provides an overview of the application of Bayesian inference to accelerated life testing (ALT) models for the concrete case of estimation by Maximum of Aposteriori (MAP) method in the case of constant stress levels. It studies the Bayesian inference over the accelerated life model as presented in [1]. It suites, integrates and generalizes the particular cases presented in [2] and [3]....
The three-parameter Weibull distribution is a commonly-used distribution for the study of reliability and breakage data. However, given a data set, it is difficult to estimate the parameters of the distribution and that, for many reasons: (1) the equations of the maximum likelihood estimators are not all available in closed form. These equations can be estimated using iterative methods. However, (2)...
Reliability is very important for the systems in aeronautics and astronautics. Despite its appeal for attractive mathematical features the PLP model suffers from a few drawbacks. Duane and Crow/AMSAA models are widely used in the reliability growth assessment. But for the reliability growth case, the intensity function of the PLP has the rather unrealistic feature that it tends to infinite as time...
The present paper deals with the evaluation of large-scale listening tests and with the detection of unaccountable or unreliable answers for each listener. The iterative maximum likelihood estimation scheme is proposed and its abilities are demonstrated and discussed on data collected from a large-scale listening test which was carried out with the aim to collect reference material capturing human...
