Carlos Alberto de Braganca Pereira, Teresa Cristina Martins Dias, Adriano Polpo
The purpose of these notes is to present an assessment of the probability of a candidate be elected in a two-round presidential election. In the first round, all candidates can be…
Estimation of component reliability from superposed renewal processes with masked cause of failure by means of latent variables
Agatha Rodrigues, Pascal Kerschke, Carlos Alberto de B. Pereira +4
In a system, there are identical replaceable components working for a given task and a failed component is replaced by a functioning one in the corresponding position, which charac…
Reliability Estimation in Coherent Systems
Agatha Rodrigues, Carlos Alberto Pereira, Adriano Polpo
Usually, methods evaluating system reliability require engineers to quantify the reliability of each of the system components. For series and parallel systems, there are some optio…
Reliability of components of coherent systems: estimates in presence of masked data
Agatha Sacramento Rodrigues, Carlos Alberto de Braganca Pereira, Adriano Polpo
The reliability of a system of components depends on reliability of each component. Thus, the initial statistical work should be the estimation of the reliability of each component…
On relative weighted entropies with central moments weight functions
Salimeh Yasaei Sekeh, Adriano Polpo
Following [1], the aim of this paper is to analyze the relative weighted entropy involving the central moments weight functions. We compare the standard relative entropy with the w…
