Parameter Estimation of Birnbaum-Saunders Distribution under Competing Risks Using the Quantile Variant of the Expectation-Maximization Algorithm
Competing risks models, also known as weakest-link models, are utilized to analyze diverse strength distributions exhibiting multi-modality, often attributed to various types of defects within the material. The weakest-link theory posits that a material’s fracture is dictated by its most severe defe...
