Graphical Estimators From Probability Plots With Right-Censored Data

Abstract: Probability plots are popular graphical tools used by reliability engineers and other practitioners for assessing parametric distributional assumptions. They are particularly well suited for location-scale families or those that can be transformed to such families. When the plot indicates a reasonable conformity to the assumed family, it is common to estimate the underlying location and scale parameters by fitting a line through the plot. This quick-and-easy method is especially useful with censored data. Inde… Show more

“…The points are plotted using the approximate median-rank positions (i À 0.3)=(n þ 0.4). Note that the ML line would have agreed better with the points had the plotting positions (i À 0.5)=n been displayed instead (as in Lawless 2003;Meeker and Escobar 1998;and Somboonsavatdee et al 2007). Figure 3 compares ML and MRR Weibull distribution estimates for a simulated type 1 censored sample that resulted in seven failures before the censoring time of 100 time hours.…”
