Basic concepts of reliability. Data truncation. Reliability or survival function, hazard function. Lifetime distributions: Gamma, Weibull, Gumbel, Log-logistic, etc. Non-parametric estimation: Kaplan-Meier estimator, Nelson-Aalen estimator. Log-rank test. Graphical tests. Model fitting using the maximum likelihood method. Goodness-of-fit tests. Regression models for lifetime data: proportional hazards models, accelerated failure time models and Cox s semi-parametric model. Model development and diagnostic methods, Cox-Snell residuals, Schoenfeld residuals. System reliability. Repairable systems. Computer applications.
