The following data are taken from Lawless (1982, p.193) and represent the number of days it took rats painted with a carcinogen to develop carcinoma. The last 2 observations are censored data from a ...

The two-parameter Weibull distribution has been recognized as a useful model for survival populations associated with reliability studies and life testing experiments. In the analysis of atmospheric ...

You can use Q-Q plots to estimate shape, location, and scale parameters and to estimate percentiles. If you are working with a normal Q-Q plot, you can also estimate certain capability indices. Some ...

Linear, asymptotically normal and efficient estimators are given for the shape parameter of the two parameter Weibull distribution when the scale parameter is known and for the log of the scale ...

When products start failing, management wants answers. Are they failing because of manufacturing problems? Or is the design to blame? One of the most widely regarded methods for ferreting out the ...
