Título: Inference Based on Data from Superpositions of Identical Renewal Processes

Resumo: Maintenance data can be used to make inferences about the lifetime distribution of system components. Typically a fleet contains multiple systems. Within each system there is a set of nominally identical replaceable components of particular interest (e.g., two automobile headlights, eight DIMM modules in a computing server, sixteen cylinders in a locomotive engine). For each component replacement event, there is system-level information that a component was replaced, but not information on which particular component was replaced. Thus the observed data is a collection of superpositions of identical renewal processes (SRP), one for each system in the fleet. This paper proposes a procedure for estimating the component lifetime distribution using the aggregated event data from a fleet of systems. We show how to compute the likelihood function for the collection of SRPs and provide suggestions for efficient computations. We compare performance of this incomplete-data ML estimator with the complete-data ML estimator and study the performance of confidence interval methods for estimating quantiles of the lifetime distribution of the component.
