Decision-Making for the Lifetime Performance Index

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to develop a maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) for lifetime performance index CL for the parameter of mixture Rayleigh-Half Normal distribution (RHN) under progressively type-II right-censored samples under the constraint of knowing the lower specification limit (L). Additionally, we suggest an asymptotic normal distribution for the MLE for CL in order to construct a mechanism for evaluating products’ lifespan efficiency. We have specified all the steps to carry out the test. Additionally, not only does hypothesis testing successfully assess the lifetime performance of items, but it also functions as a supplier selection criterion for the consumer. Finally, we have added two real data examples as illustration examples. These two applications are provided to demonstrate how the results can be applied.
