Abstract

For analyzing reliability of technical systems it is often important to investigate damage processes. In this paper we describe a damage process (Zt) which is assumed to be generated by a positionependent marking of a doubly stochastic Poisson process. For some parametric intensity kernels of the corresponding marked point process we determine maximum-likelihood estimations. Censored observations are taken into account. Furthermore, the large sample case is considered.1
