An Inverse Gaussian Process Model for Degradation Data
Abstract
This paper studies the maximum likelihood estimation of a class of inverse Gaussian process models for degradation data. Both the subject-to-subject heterogeneity and covariate information can be incorporated into the model in a natural way. The EM algorithm is used to obtain the maximum likelihood estimators of the unknown parameters and the bootstrap is used to assess the variability of the maximum likelihood estimators. Simulations are used to validate the method. The model is fitted to laser data and corresponding goodness-of-fit tests are carried out. Failure time distributions in terms of degradation level passages are calculated and illustrated. The supplemental materials for this article are available online.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
