Modeling Mean Residual Life Function Using Scale Mixtures

Liu, Shufang - 2008

The mean residual life function (mrlf) of a subject is defined as the expected remaining (residual) lifetime of the … nonparametric estimator of the mean residual life function based on a set of right censored observations. The proposed smooth … established. A simulation study shows that the proposed scale mixture mean residual life function is more efficient in terms of …

Percentile residual life orders

Franco-Pereira, Alba M.; Lillo, Rosa E.; Romo, Juan; … - Departamento de Estadistica, Universidad Carlos III de … - 2008

In this paper we study a family of stochastic orders of random variables defined via the comparison of their percentile residual life functions. Some interpretations of these stochastic orders are given, and various properties of them are derived. The relationships to other stochastic orders are...

A simple relation between the Leimkuhler curve and the mean residual life

Balakrishnan, N.; Sarabia, José María; Kolev, Nikolai - In: Journal of Informetrics 4 (2010) 4, pp. 602-607

In this paper, a simple relation between the Leimkuhler curve and the mean residual life is established. The result is illustrated with several models commonly used in informetrics, such as exponential, Pareto and lognormal. Finally, relationships with some other reliability concepts are also...
