    • A new test for decreasing mean residual lifetimes 

      Lorenzo, Edgardo; Malla, Ganesh B.; Mukerjee, Hari (Taylor & Francis, 2018-03-02)
      The mean residual life of a non negative random variable X with a finite mean is defined by M(t) = E[X - t|X > t] for t 0. One model of aging is the decreasing mean residual life (DMRL): M is decreasing (non increasing) ...

    • A new test for new better than used in expectation lifetimes 

      Lorenzo, Edgardo; Malla, Ganesh B.; Mukerjee, Hari (Taylor & Francis Group, 2015)
      The mean residual life of a non negative random variable X with a finite mean is defined by M(t) = E[X - t | X > t] for t >= 0. A popular nonparametric model of aging is new better than used in expectation (NBUE), when ...

    • Restricted estimation of the cumulative incidence functions corresponding to competing risks 

      El Barmi, Hammou; Mukerjee, Hari (Institute of Mathematical Statistics, 2006)
      In the competing risks problem, an important role is played by the cumulative incidence function (CIF), whose value at time t is the probability of failure by time t from a particular type of failure in the presence of ...
