When strength and stress variables follow generalized inverted exponential distributions (GIEDs) with common scale parameters, maximum likelihood estimate of MSS reliability is established along with associated existence and uniqueness, and approximate confidence interval is also obtained in consequence. Additionally, alternative generalized estimates are proposed for MSS reliability based on constructed pivotal quantities, and associated Monte-Carlo sampling is provided for computation. Further, classical and generalized estimates are also established under unequal strength and stress parameter case. For comparison, bootstrap confidence intervals are also provided under different cases. To compare the equivalence of the strength and stress parameters, likelihood ratio testing is presented as a complement. Finally, extensive simulation studies are carried out to assess the performance of the proposed methods, and a real data example is presented for application. The numerical results indicate that the proposed generalized methods perform better than conventional likelihood results.","PeriodicalId":21970,"journal":{"name":"Stochastic Models","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2023-01-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48109093","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This model is defined by considering a delay in collecting information. The mathematical formulation of this model is done through four parameters; the number of balls in the first structure (N 0), the number of white balls in the first structure (W 0), the number of rewarded balls of the color of the ball withdrawn (a), and the length of the delay (i). As the first attempt to deal with point estimation in this model, we consider at any time one of the parameters separately as unknown conditioned to knowing the other three parameters, and find its estimation. Accordingly, we introduce a sufficient estimator for this model, and found on it, obtain the maximum likelihood estimators for each of the four parameters. In addition, moment estimators for N 0 and W 0 are calculated. Also, for the other parameters, we obtain estimators based on the correlation coefficient of consecutive withdrawals. To evaluate the performance of the obtained estimators and compare their accuracy, we apply five simulations of the delayed Pólya urn model. The simulations have been done with the software Matlab R2015b. According to the simulation study, the estimators obtained from the method of moments are preferable to maximum likelihood estimators.","PeriodicalId":21970,"journal":{"name":"Stochastic Models","volume":"39 1","pages":"662 - 684"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41693803","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Demand arrivals of each class are assumed to be a Poisson process, and a lost-sales setting is adopted. The demand classes are classified by the cost of their unsatisfied demands. We consider two cases: the leftover inventory at the end of a restocking interval is entirely discarded or entirely carried over to the next period. We obtain the optimal rationing policy, the optimal ordering policy and the optimal duration of the periodic review interval that minimize the average cost per unit time. We derive the differential equations satisfied by the value function characterized by the on-hand inventory level and the residual restocking time. This value function does not have the traditional modularity and convexity properties. Hence, the optimal policy is derived directly based on the ordinary differential equations satisfied by the value function. Moreover, some structural properties of the optimal policy such as the monotone property of the optimal rationing policy are obtained.","PeriodicalId":21970,"journal":{"name":"Stochastic Models","volume":"39 1","pages":"592 - 631"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-11-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44068880","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The 2021 year’s conference continued the tradition of the previous meetings in facilitating the exchange of research ideas in this field and related processes. The IWBPA2021 meeting was the fifth in the series of IWBPAs promoted and organized since 2009 by the research group Branching Processes and their Applications at the Department of Mathematics of the University of Extremadura, Spain, and scientifically sponsored by the Spanish Society for Statistics and Operations Research (Sociedad de Estad ıstica e Investigaci on Operativa) and the Institute of Advanced Scientific Computation of Extremadura (Instituto de Computaci on Cient ıfica Avanzada de Extremadura). There were 145 participants and 58 speakers from 22 countries who contributed to the success of the workshop. The presentations at the workshop maintained a healthy balance between the theoretical and practical aspects of branching processes. The speakers articulated the fact that this research area is very active and produces interesting results.
