A Nonparametric Approach to Accelerated Life Testing
加速寿命试验的非参数方法
A nonparametric model of acceleration is introduced. Based on this model, a procedure is suggested for estimating the nonaccelerated life distribution from accelerated observations. Unlike previous nonparametric estimation procedures, our method does not require nonaccelerated observations. A relationship between the accelerated and the nonaccelerated distributions is assumed but there is variety in that choice. A comparison of our method with the power rule method under the…
