Sufficient Conditions for Some Stochastic Orders of Discrete Random Variables with Applications in Reliability

In this paper we focus on providing sufficient conditions for some well-known stochastic orders in reliability but dealing with the discrete versions of them, filling a gap in the literature. In particular, we find conditions based on the unimodality of the likelihood ratio for the comparison in som...
