Item description from seller

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This concise text provides a fresh approach to reliability theory, an area that has gained relevance in fields from statistics and engineering to demography and insurance. Unlike other works on this topic, most of which rely on distribution functions for their analysis, this book focuses on applying quantile function models to lifetime data. This reformulated perspective proves at once simpler, more robust, and more accurate than the conventional alternative. The book's innovative methodology is laid out in a well-organized, logically-structured sequence of topics, including Definitions and properties of reliability concepts in terms of quantile functions; Ageing concepts and their interrelationships; Total time on test transforms; L-moments of residual life; Score and tail exponent functions and relevant applications; Modeling problems and stochastic orders connecting quantile-based reliability functions. An ideal text for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses in Reliability and Statistics, Quantile-Based Reliability Theory also contains many unique topics for study and research in survival analysis, engineering, economics, and the medical sciences. In addition, its illuminating discussion of the general theory of quantile functions is germane to many contexts involving statistical analysis. 420 pp. Englisch.…
