Abstract:

The hazard or conditional failure hx equals fx1-Fx of a life-distribution which has the same role in reliability studies as the spectral density-function in stationary time series analysis is studied. There are many situations where the most revealing analysis of the data is the non-parametric estimation of hx. The study of this approach to reliability is examined. Author
