Analysis of Survival Data by a Weibull-generalized Sibuya Distribution
In this paper, we consider a survival model of a series system with random sample size, Z. Such a situation arises in competing risk analysis where the number of causes of failure is random and only the minimum of the survival times due to various causes is observed. Considering the distribution of Z as generalized Sibuya and the baseline distribution as Weibull, a Weibull-generalized Sibuya distribution is derived. The structural properties of the proposed model are studied along with the maximum likelihood estimation of the parameters. Extensive simulation studies are carried out to study the performance of the estimators. For illustration, two real data sets are analyzed and it is shown that the proposed model fits better than some of the existing models.
期刊介绍:
The Austrian Journal of Statistics is an open-access journal (without any fees) with a long history and is published approximately quarterly by the Austrian Statistical Society. Its general objective is to promote and extend the use of statistical methods in all kind of theoretical and applied disciplines. The Austrian Journal of Statistics is indexed in many data bases, such as Scopus (by Elsevier), Web of Science - ESCI by Clarivate Analytics (formely Thompson & Reuters), DOAJ, Scimago, and many more. The current estimated impact factor (via Publish or Perish) is 0.775, see HERE, or even more indices HERE. Austrian Journal of Statistics ISNN number is 1026597X Original papers and review articles in English will be published in the Austrian Journal of Statistics if judged consistently with these general aims. All papers will be refereed. Special topics sections will appear from time to time. Each section will have as a theme a specialized area of statistical application, theory, or methodology. Technical notes or problems for considerations under Shorter Communications are also invited. A special section is reserved for book reviews.
