Parameter Estimation in Renewal Processes with Imperfect Repair

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Statistics for Industry and Technology ((SIT))

Abstract

In this paper we develop statistical methods for a general repair model from Last and Szekli (1995).

For determining the model parameters the maximum likelihood estimator is considered. Special results are obtained by the use of Pareto, Log-linear and Weibull-type intensities. Estimations for the degree of repair in a simple model are developed.
