Non-Homogeneous Autoregressive Processes for Tracking (Software) Reliability Growth, and Their Bayesian Analysis
跟踪软件可靠性增长的非齐次自回归过程及贝叶斯分析
SUMMARY We motivate a non-homogeneous autoregressive process as a model for reliability growth and consider two formulations, both Bayesian, which alleviate a limitation that least squares estimators for such processes of order greater than 1 exist only when repeated measurements of the time series are available. In one formulation, the prior assumption involves exchangeability of coefficients, whereas in the other an autoregressive structure is imposed on them. Both…
