Abstract

The shuffled complex-evolution metropolis algorithm (SCEM-UA) is used to estimate mixed Weibull distribution parameters in automotive reliability analysis. The results are compared with maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) results. The comparison shows that, in the examples given, SCEM-UA can deliver more accurate results than MLE overall.
