Different estimation techniques for constant-partially accelerated life tests of chen distribution using complete data

Abstract

AbstractThe issue of various estimation techniques in constant partially accelerated life tests with complete data is the main subject of this research. The Chen distribution is regarded as an item’s lifetime under use conditions. To estimate the distribution parameters and the acceleration factor, maximum likelihood estimation, least square estimation, weighted least square estimation, Cramér Von–Mises estimation, Anderson–Darling estimation, right-tail Anderson–Darling estimation, percentile estimation, and maximum product of spacing estimation are presented for classical estimation. For illustrative purposes, two real data sets are analyzed. The investigation of the two real data sets reveals that the suggested techniques are practical and can be used to solve some engineering-related issues. In order to compare the results of the several estimation techniques that have been offered based on mean square error and absolute average bias, a simulation study is presented at the end. When adopting the smallest values for mean square error and absolute average bias, this study demonstrates that maximum product of spacing estimation is the technique that is most effective among the alternatives in most cases.
