Testing the Validity of Lindley Model Based on Nonparametric Probability Density Functions of Entropy Estimators

Ver documento

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:The Lindley distribution is one of the fundamental models applied for reliability models and in the present article, we propose some test statistics for testing the validity of Lindley model based on correcting moments of nonparametric probability density functions of entropy estimators. Critical points and type I error of the tests are obtained and power values of the tests are computed by Monte Carlo simulation. We show that the proposed tests are more powerful than competitor tests. Finally, the proposed tests are illustrated by a real data example.
