Abstract
- In this paper we extend the family of test proposed by Majumder and Mitra [Detecting trend change in failure functions-an L-statistic approach. Stat Pap. 2019;62:31–52. doi: ] for testing exponentiality against bathtub (BT) failure rate (upside down bathtub (UBT)) to randomly right censored case. We derive the asymptotic distribution of the test statistic and using Monte Carlo simulation we obtain the empirical powers for certain alternative distributions. As a special case the asymptotic distribution of the test statistic proposed by Park [Testing whether failure rate changes its trend. IEEE Trans Reliab. 1988;37(4):375–378. doi: ] is obtained. Finally some examples of real life data are given for illustrative purpose. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
