Recently, there has been a focus on modeling non-monotonic hazard functions, and a general EM algorithm is proposed to fit these complex hazard functions.
Recently, many researchers focused on modeling non-monotonic hazard functions such as bath-tube and hump shapes. However, most of their estimation methods are focused on complete observations. Since reliability data are typically censored and truncated, a general EM algorithm is proposed, which can fit any of those complex hazard functions. The proposed EM algorithm is analyzed by fitting well-known 4-parameter hazard functions, where its performance is compared by their specific direct methods through extensive Monte Carlo simulations.
