Estimation Of Reliability In Multicomponent Stress-Strength Based On Generalized Rayleigh Distribution, Gadde Srinivasa Rao
Estimation Of Reliability In Multicomponent Stress-Strength Based On Generalized Rayleigh Distribution, Gadde Srinivasa Rao
Srinivasa Rao Gadde Dr.
A multicomponent system of k components having strengths following k- independently and identically distributed random variables x1, x2, ..., xk and each component experiencing a random stress Y is considered. The system is regarded as alive only if at least s out of k (s < k) strengths exceed the stress. The reliability of such a system is obtained when strength and stress variates are given by a generalized Rayleigh distribution with different shape parameters. Reliability is estimated using the maximum likelihood (ML) method of estimation in samples drawn from strength and stress distributions; the reliability estimators are compared asymptotically. Monte-Carlo …
Using The Bootstrap For Estimating The Sample Size In Statistical Experiments, Maher Qumsiyeh
Using The Bootstrap For Estimating The Sample Size In Statistical Experiments, Maher Qumsiyeh
Maher Qumsiyeh
Efron’s (1979) Bootstrap has been shown to be an effective method for statistical estimation and testing. It provides better estimates than normal approximations for studentized means, least square estimates and many other statistics of interest. It can be used to select the active factors - factors that have an effect on the response - in experimental designs. This article shows that the bootstrap can be used to determine sample size or the number of runs required to achieve a certain confidence level in statistical experiments.

Comparison Of Re-Sampling Methods To Generalized Linear Models And Transformations In Factorial And Fractional Factorial Designs, Maher Qumsiyeh, Gerald Shaughnessy

Experimental situations in which observations are not normally distributed frequently occur in practice. A common situation occurs when responses are discrete in nature, for example counts. One way to analyze such experimental data is to use a transformation for the responses; another is to use a link function based on a generalized linear model (GLM) approach. Re-sampling is employed as an alternative method to analyze non-normal, discrete data. Results are compared to those obtained by the previous two methods.
A Review Of Frequentist Tests For The 2x2 Binomial Trial, Chris Lloyd
A Review Of Frequentist Tests For The 2x2 Binomial Trial, Chris Lloyd
Chris J. Lloyd
The 2x2 binomial trial is the simplest of data structures yet its statistical analysis and the issues it raises have been debated and revisited for over 70 years. Which analysis should biomedical researchers use in applications? In this review, we consider frequentist tests only, specifically tests with control size either exactly or very close to exactly. These procedures can be classified as conditional and unconditional. Amongst tests motivated by a conditional model, Lancaster’s mid-p and Liebermeister’s test are less conservative than Fisher’s classical test, but do not control type 1 error. Within the conditional framework, only Fisher’s test can be …
