Abstract:The lifetime data collected from the field are usually heavily censored, in which case, getting an accurate reliability evaluation based on heavily censored data is challenging. For heavily Type‐II censored data, the parameters estimation bias of traditional methods (i.e., maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) and least squares estimation (LSE)) are still large, and Bayesian methods are hard to specify the priors in practice. Therefore, considering the existing range of shape parameter for Weibull distribution, … Show more
