CHARACTERIZATION OF DISTRIBUTIONS THROUGH HAZARD FUNCTIONS AND REVERSED HAZARD FUNCTIONS
Jiantian Wang
|
Abstract: Nanda [6] characterized exponential distribution and Rayleigh distribution through the expected value of hazard function. These distributions are special cases of Weibull distributions. In this paper, we characterize Weibull distributions and introduce reversed-Weibull distributions through hazard functions and reversed hazard functions. |
Keywords and phrases: characterization, hazard function, reversed hazard function. |
