A Test For Determining An Appropriate Model For Accelerated Life Data, Yuan-Who Chen
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
The purpose of this thesis was to evaluate a method for testing the appropriateness of accelerated life model. This method is based upon a polynomial approximation. The parameters are estimated and used for testing the appropriateness of the model.
An example illustrates the polynomial method. Real data are applied for this method. Comparison with another method demonstrates that the polynomial method is much simpler and has comparable accuracy.
