Reliability estimation of type-II generalized loglogistic distribution

Abstract

In this article, a lifetime distribution named as Type-II generalized log-logistic distribution (TGLLD) is considered and its failure rate of products with different shape parameters used to find out ageing criteria. An attempt has been made to derive the statistical and reliability properties of TGLLD. Parameters are evaluated using maximum likelihood estimation and obtained the reliability of the distribution. A simulation study also conducted to know the performance of the estimators. The estimates obtained are validated with the use of live data.
