Abstract:The main purpose of this note is to provide further properties of discrete lifetime distributions based on variance residual lifetimes (VRL). New discrete aging classes are introduced in terms of discrete version of VRL. We demonstrate closure of discrete variance residual lifetime under convolution and mixing.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
