In the present note, we study an extended class of Pearson system of distributions in the context of reliability. It is shown
that the proposed class of models can be characterized by a relatioaship between the failure rate and the conditional moments.
Further, we develop a procedure to identify an increasing (decreasing) failure rate model in the generalized Pearson system. 相似文献

This article proposes the methodology of embodied norm violation for overcoming the dichotomy between cognitive reflexivity and embodied ethnographic practice. The methodology is derived from the author's own embodied experiences as a female Indo-German ethnographer in the field of IT India. For exemplifying the methodology and its potential, this article focusses on two field-related phenomena, namely adhering to a vegetarian diet and dressing the female body. It uses them to gather insights on embodied purity and caste in IT India and discusses implications with regard to the political body (Foucault), the social body (Bourdieu), and the individual body (Merleau-Ponty). The theoretical contribution lies in suggesting embodied norm violation as a reflexive research methodology which delivers organizational insights beyond text, discourse, and cognition. On the empirical level, embodied norm violation enabled the researcher to uncover the pre-reflexive and gendered dimension of IT India as a neocolonial, modernist, and male project. 相似文献

In this article, we study reliability measures such as geometric vitality function and conditional Shannon's measures of uncertainty proposed by Ebrahimi (1996) and Sankaran and Gupta (1999), respectively, for the doubly (interval) truncated random variables. In survival analysis and reliability engineering, these measures play a significant role in studying the various characteristics of a system/component when it fails between two time points. The interrelationships among these uncertainty measures for various distributions are derived and proved characterization theorems arising out of them. 相似文献

Proportional Hazards Model (PHM) introduced by Cox (1972) is extensively studied in literature. In this paper, we study reliability properties of the PHM using quantile functions. Some special properties of the quantile function, which are not shared by distribution function are explored to study various properties of the PHM. We discuss ageing properties and stochastic orders for the PHM. The quantile-based dynamic cumulative Kullback-Leibler divergence of PHM is studied. Characterizations of some important quantile densities using PHM are also proved. 相似文献

In this paper, we study the relationship between the failure rate and the mean residual life of doubly truncated random variables.
Accordingly, we develop characterizations for exponential, Pareto II and beta distributions. Further, we generalize the identities
for the Pearson and the exponential family of distributions given respectively in Nair and Sankaran (1991) and Consul (1995).
Applications of these measures in the context of lengthbiased models are also explored. 相似文献

We characterize the Pearson family of distributions by finding a relationship between the failure rate and the higher order
moments of residual life. We also present a characterization theorem of IFR(DFR) class of distributions in the Pearson family. 相似文献

In the present paper, we define and study four versions of multivariate discrete reversed hazard rates, namely scalar reversed hazard rate, vector reversed hazard rate, alternative reversed hazard rate, and conditional reversed hazard rate. Various properties of these functions are studied. Interrelationships between these reversed hazard rates are explored. We also present characterization of discrete distributions using these reversed hazard rates. 相似文献

In this article, we present various distributional properties and application to reliability analysis of the Govindarajulu distribution. A quantile-based analysis is performed as the distribution function is not analytically tractable. The properties of the distribution like percentiles, L-moments, L-skewness, and kurtosis and order statistics are presented. Various reliability characteristics are derived along with some characterization theorems by relationship between reliability measures. We also make a comparative study with other competing models with reference to real data. 相似文献

Partial moments are extensively used in actuarial science for the analysis of risks. Since the first order partial moments provide the expected loss in a stop-loss treaty with infinite cover as a function of priority, it is referred as the stop-loss transform. In the present work, we discuss distributional and geometric properties of the first and second order partial moments defined in terms of quantile function. Relationships of the scaled stop-loss transform curve with the Lorenz, Gini, Bonferroni and Leinkuhler curves are developed. 相似文献
