Some stochastic comparison results for frailty and resilience models

Frailty and resilience models provide a way to introduce random effects in hazard and reversed hazard rate modeling by random variables, called frailty and resilience random variables, respectively, to account for unobserved or unexplained heterogeneity among experimental units. This paper investigates the effects of frailty and resilience random variables on the baseline random variables using some shifted stochastic orders based on some ageing properties of the baseline random variables. Relevant examples are provided to illustrate the results. Some results are illustrated with real-world data.

Dispersive and star ordering of sample extremes from dependent random variables following the proportional odds model

Dispersive order is a type of variability order for comparing the variability in probability distributions. Star order compares the skewness of probability distributions. This work considers dispersive and star orders of extreme order statistics from dependent random variables following the proportional odds (PO) model. The joint distribution of the random variables is modeled with Archimedean copula. Numerical examples are provided to illustrate the findings.

Stochastic comparisons of lifetimes of series and parallel systems with dependent and heterogeneous components

This work considers stochastic comparisons of lifetimes of series and parallel systems with dependent and heterogeneous components having lifetimes following the proportional odds (PO) model. The joint distribution of component lifetimes is modeled by Archimedean survival copula. We discuss some potential applications of our findings in system reliability and actuarial science.
