Statistics Seminar (supported by the LMS) with Professor Narayanaswamy Balakrishnan, Professor in the Department of Mathematics & Statistics from McMaster University, Ontario, Canada.
Topic - Joint Prediction and Associated Results
Abstract - Prediction of future failures has been discussed rather extensively in the life-testing and reliability literature. Most of these developments centre on prediction of one future failure. In this talk, I will introduce the joint prediction of future failures, specifically joint best linear unbiased prediction, and then establish several interesting properties associated with it. I will present some illustrative examples to highlight the established results.
