On the residual lifelengths of the remaining components in a coherent system
Nama, M. Kelkin; Asadi, M.; Zhang, Z. - In: Metrika 76 (2013) 7, pp. 979-996
In this note, we consider a coherent system with the property that, upon failure of the system, some of its components remain unfailed in the system. Under this condition, we study the residual lifetime of the live components of the system. Signature based mixture representation of the joint and...

On some reliability measures and their stochastic orderings for the Topp-Leone distribution
Ghitany, M. E.; Kotz, S.; Xie, M. - In: Journal of Applied Statistics 32 (2005) 7, pp. 715-722
Topp-Leone distribution is a continuous unimodal distribution with bounded support (recently rediscovered) which is useful for modelling life-time phenomena. In this paper we study some reliability measures of this distribution such as the hazard rate, mean residual life, reversed hazard rate,...

The percentile residual life up to time t0: ordering and aging properties
Franco-Pereira, Alba M.; Lillo, Rosa E.; Romo, Juan - Departamento de Estadistica, Universidad Carlos III de … - 2010
Motivated by practical issues, a new stochastic order for random variables is introduced by comparing all their percentile residual life functions until a certain instant. Some interpretations of these stochastic orders are given, and various properties of them are derived. The relationships to...

Kernel and CDF-Based Estimation of Extropy and Entropy from Progressively Type-II Censoring with Application for Goodness of Fit Problems
Hazeb, Rajaa; Bayoud, Husam A.; Raqab, Mohammad Z. - In: Stochastics and Quality Control 36 (2021) 1, pp. 73-83
Abstract Recently, entropy and extropy-based tests for the uniform distribution have attracted the attention of some … researchers. This paper proposes nonparametric entropy and extropy estimators based on progressive type-II censoring and … investigates their properties and behavior. Performance of the proposed estimators is studied via simulations. Entropy and extropy …
