Abstract Mxture models costtute a fte ad fte umber of compoets that expla dfferet datasets. However there are may stuatos where mxture models comprse a terestg setch of dfferet aspects. I ths study we explore the dea of mxture desty uder Type I cesorg scheme. We model a heterogeeous populato by meas of two compoets mxture of the Maxwell dstrbuto. The parameters of the Maxwell mxture are estmated ad compared usg the Bayes estmates uder the square error loss fucto ad precautoary loss fucto. A cesored mxture data s smulated by probablstc mxg for the computatoal purpose. Closed form expressos for the Bayes estmators ad posteror rs are derved for the cesored sample as well as for the complete sample. Some terestg comparso ad propertes of the estmates are observed ad preseted. A real lfe data applcato has also bee dscussed. Keywords: Fte mxture of Maxwell dstrbuto; Cesored samplg; Fxed termato tme; Lmtg expresso; Elctato of Hyperparameters; Squared error loss fucto; Precautoary loss fucto.. Itroducto The Maxwell dstrbuto s a probablty dstrbuto wth applcato physcs ad chemstry. The most frequet applcato s the feld of statstcal mechacs. The temperature of ay (massve) physcal system s the result of the motos of the molecules ad atoms whch mae up the system. These partcles have a rage of dfferet veloctes, ad the velocty of ay sgle partcle costatly chages due to collsos wth other partcles. However, the fracto of a large umber of partcles wth a partcular velocty rage s early costat. The Maxwell dstrbuto of veloctes specfes ths fracto, for ay velocty rage as a fucto of the temperature of the system. Tyag ad Bhattacharya (989a, b) cosdered Maxwell dstrbuto as a lfetme model for the frst tme. They obtaed Bayes estmates ad mmum varace ubased estmators of the parameter ad relablty fucto for the Maxwell dstrbuto. Chaturved ad Ra (998) geeralzed Maxwell dstrbuto ad they obtaed Classcal ad Bayesa estmators for geeralzed dstrbuto. Beer ad Roux (5) studed Emprcal Bayes estmato for Maxwell dstrbuto. These studes gve mathematcal hadlg to Maxwell dstrbuto but gore the applcato aspect of the Maxwell dstrbuto. The motvato of usg mxture model s that curret scearo, aalysts are able to descrbe estmates, predct ad fer about the complex system of terest usg more powerful ad complex computatoal methods. But mxture model comprses a terestg setch of all these aspects. Mxture models costtute a fte ad fte umber of compoets that expla dfferet datasets. The Bayesa approach to aalyze mxture models has developed great terest betwee aalysts. Posteror dstrbuto s the worbech of Bayesa statstcas. It s obtaed whe pror formato s combed wth lelhood. Therefore pror formato s ecessary for Bayesa approach. 97

2 Cetre for Promotg Ideas, USA The pror formato s purely subjectve assessmet of a expert before ay data have bee observed. Also Berger (985) argue that whe formato s ot compact form the Bayesa aalyss usg o-formatve prors or sgle most sutable cosderato. So ths study we cosder two o-formatve prors ad two formatve prors for comparso purpose. A fte mxture of some sutable probablty dstrbutos are recommeded to study a populato that s supposed to comprse a umber of subpopulato mxed a uow proporto. A populato of lfetmes of certa electrcal elemets may be dvded to a umber of subpopulatos depedg upo the possble case. Mxture model have bee used physcal chemcal, socal scece, bologcal ad other felds. For example Sha (998) cosdered the Bayesa couterpart of the maxmum lelhood estmates of the Medehall ad Hader (958) mxture. Saleem ad Aslam (8) use the Bayesa Aalyss for the two compoets Mxture of the Raylegh dstrbuto assumg the uform ad Jeffery prors. A type I mxture s stated as the mxture of probablty desty fucto from the same famly, whle a mxture of desty fuctos from several famles s called a type II mxture. Now f we tal about the practcal stuatos, a mxture populato may have the ow compoet destes ad we eed to fer oly about the mxg weghts. O the other had, may real lfe applcatos, there are ow fuctoal forms of compoet destes wth uow parameters but mxg weghts are ow ad vce versa. I ths paper, type I mxture models wth uow parameters of the ow umber of compoet destes belogg to the same parametrc famly ad wth uow mxg weghts are cosdered. Cesorg s a uavodable feature of the lfetme applcatos ad s a form of mssg data problem. A accout of cesorg ca be see Leems (955), etz et al (97), Kle (9), Kalbflesch et al () ad Smth () that are valuable cotrbuto to survval aalyss techque for cesored ad trucated data. Jag (99) deals wth maxmum lelhood estmates usg cesored data for mxed Webull dstrbuto whle Wag et al (958) cosders the estmators for survval fucto whe cesorg tmes are ow. Cesorg s dvded to three types,.e., left, rght, ad terval cesorg s sad to be employed f lfetme of a object s greater tha a depedet radom umber. I type I (type II) rght cesorg, the lfe-test termato tme (the umber of dead objects) s pre-specfed. I ordary type I rght cesorg; the lfe-test termato tme s the same for all the objects. The lfe-tme of a object s called terval cesored f t s ow to fall a ow tme-terval. I our study, a ordary type I rght cesorg s cosdered wth a fxed-test termato tme. Now to aswers the questos that why we use verted gamma ad verted Ch square prors for mxture aalyss ad why we use cesorg o data why ot o parameter, As we ow that the Maxwell model s sewed so we should have a pror whch reflect expert owledge a better form so there should be a sewed pror for ths model. Sce Iverted Gamma s a atural cojugate pror for the Maxwell model therefore we use t. The we ch square pror whch s aother form of the verted gamma dstrbuto order to chec that may be t perform better tha verted Gamma pror. If we tal about cesorg the cesorg s a data property ad we caot apply o parameters. I ths paper, radom observatos tae from ths populato are supposed to be characterzed by oe of the two dstct uow members of a Maxwell dstrbuto. So the two compoet mxture of the Maxwell dstrbuto s recommeded to model ths populato. Rght cesorg s cosdered ad the observatos greater tha the fxed cut off cesor value, T are tae as cesored oes. The Iverse Trasform method of smulato, ad the computatos volved are coducted usg the pacages Mtab, Mathematca, SAS ad Excel. We may brea ths study to followg sectos. The Maxwell mxture model s defed Secto ad ts lelhood s developed Secto. Secto 4,5 ad 6, evaluate the Bayes estmators ad ther posteror rs uder square error loss fucto ad precautoary loss fucto usg uform, Jeffreys, Iverted Gamma ad Iverted Ch- Squared pror. Elctato of hyperparameters method s dscussed Secto 7. Lmtg expressos are derved Secto 8. I Secto 9, the smulato study s performed. Secto 0 presets the real lfe data whch are used for the evaluato of Bayes estmates. Some cocludg remars are gve last Secto.. The Mxture Model A fte mxture desty fucto wth the two compoet destes of specfed parametrc form wth uow mxg weghts ( p, p) s defed as follows g( x) = pf ( x ) + (- p)f ( x), 0 p () 98

3 Iteratoal Joural of Appled Scece ad Techology Vol. No. ; Jauary 0 The followg Maxwell dstrbuto s assumed for both compoets of the mxture. f x x 4 x e,,, 0, 0 x so the mxture model taes the followg form x 4 x 4 g x p x e q x e ; q p,0 p Krsha ad Mal (9) use the followg form of dstrbuto fucto: x Gx ( ), x, a e u du, s the complete gamma fucto. u a where x 0 So the correspodg dstrbuto fucto s gve by F( x) pg ( x) ( p) G ( x) x x F( x) p, ( p),. Lelhood Fucto Suppose uts from the above mxture model are used to lfe testg expermet. Let the test be coducted ad t s observe that out of test s termated as soo as the rth falure occurs ad the remag r uts are stll worg. As Medehall ad Hader (958) elghte that may real lfe stuatos oly the faled objects ca easly be detfed as member of ether subpopulato or subpopulato. So, depedg upo the cause of falure t may be observed that r ad r are detfed as members of the frst ad secod subpopulato respectvely. It s apparet that r r r ad remag r objects provde o formato about the subpopulato to whch they belog. We defe, x j as the falure tme of the jth subpopulato, where j,,,...;,; 0 xj, x j. So the lelhood fucto for the gve codto s: r r r L(,, p x) pf x j qf x j F t j j () x = x, x..., x, x, x,..., x s the observed falure tmes for the o-cesored observatos where r r r 4 x r x 4 r L(,, p x ) p x e q x e F t j j, p t q t Ft ( ),,, where t t t r r r r r r r 4 4 m r m x j j 0 m0 m j j L(,, p ) ( ) p q x x A A m m exp exp C C, () where r t, r, A xj,, 0.5 ad C,, j 99

4 Cetre for Promotg Ideas, USA 4. Bayesa Estmato usg Uformatve Prors Sce Bayesa estmato ca be appled eve whe o pror formato s avalable, so we ca say that uformatve pror s a pror whch cota o formato about parameter. Amog the techques that have bee proposed for determg uformatve prors, Jeffreys (96) suggests the most wdely use method. Box ad Tao (97), defe a uformatve pror as pror whch provdes lttle formato relatve to the expermet. Berardo ad Smth (994) use a smlar defto; they say that uformatve prors have mmal effect relatve to the data, o the fal ferece. They regard the uformatve pror as a mathematcal tool; t s o a uquely uformatve pror. Berardo (979b) argue that a uformatve pror should be regarded as referece pror,.e. a pror whch s coveet to use as a stadard aalyzg statstcal data. Gesser (984) also proposed some techques for uformatve prors. The most commo examples of uformatve prors are Uform ad Jeffreys. Both prors are used oly whe o formal pror formato s avalable. 4.. The Uform (Uformatve) Pror Bayes (76), Laplace (8) ad Gesser (984) suggest that oe may tae uform dstrbuto for the uow parameter the absece of suffcet reaso for assgg uequal probabltes to the values the parameter space had created a lot of dscomforts for the users of Bayes theorem for feretal purposes. Uform prors are partcularly easy to specfy the case of a parameter wth bouded support. The smplest stuato to cosder s whe s fte. Let ~ Uform (0, ), ~ Uform (0, ) ad p ~ U(0,).Assumg depedece, we have mproper jot pror that s proporto to a costat whch s corporated wth the above lelhood (4) ad we have jot posteror ad margal dstrbutos. The jot posteror dstrbuto usg uform pror as follows r r r r r r r 4 4 m r m x j j 0 m0 m j j p(,, p ) ( ) p q x x A A m m exp exp C C, 0,0,0 p (4) 4. Bayes Estmators usg Uform Pror Bayes estmator s a estmator or decso rule that maxmzes the posteror expected value of utlty fucto or mmzes the posteror expected value of the loss fucto. The loss fucto s the real valued fucto that clearly provdes a loss for decso a gve parameter. The square error loss fucto (SELF), L a a was proposed by Legedre (805) ad Gauss (80) to develop least square theory. Later t was used estmato problem whe ubased estmators of were evaluated terms of the rs fucto R, g whch become othg but the varace of the estmators. Norstrom (996) troduced a alteratve asymmetrc precautoary loss fucto (PLF), ad also preseted a geeral class of precautoary loss fuctos ( d) as a specal case whch s defed as L4 L(, d), Bayes estmator usg ths loss fucto s d * d E( x) ad E xl(, d) E( x) E( x) s posteror rs.

The posteror rss uder precautoary loss fucto ca also be derved smlar maer. 5. The Jeffreys (Uformatve) Pror Jeffreys pror s aother form of uformatve pror whch s also called referece pror, t s based o Fsher formato matrx habtually lead to a famly of mproper prors. Uder some regularty codtos specally case of oe parameter t does ot reveal lac of owledge, Jeffreys pror llustrate the sort of pror owledge whch would mae the data as posteror domat as possble. The posteror dstrbuto based o Jeffreys pror may the be used as a bechmar or a referece for the class of posteror dstrbuto whch may be obtaed from other prors. For the Maxwell model, gve Secto, let the Jeffrey prors g( ) I( ), f( x ) I( ) E where, are g( ) 0 g( ) 0 ad g ( p ), 0< p <. By assumg depedece we obta a jot pror g(,, p) whch s corporated wth the lelhood (4) to yeld the jot posteror ad margal dstrbutos.

Cocluso The smulato study has dsplayed some fascatg propertes of the Bayes estmates. The posteror rs of the parameter estmates seems to be farly large cases whe the values of the parameters are large ad farly small for relatvely smaller values of parameters. O the other had ay case the posteror rs of estmates of both parameter ad are reduced as the sample sze creases. A further terestg observato about cesorg the posteror rs of the estmates of ad s that creasg or decreasg the proporto of a compoet the mxture reduces (creasg) the aalogous parameter s estmate. The cosequece of cesorg o s the form of overestmato (uderestmato) f s less tha or s greater tha. To be more precse, larger degree of cesorg tme results bgger szes of over or uderestmato. O the other had the parameter p s ether uderestmated or overestmated depedg upo the values of ad. To be more precse, p s over estmated or uderestmated wheever or.the level of ths over or uder estmato s drectly proportoal to amout of cesorg rates ad versely proportoal to the sample sze. Also the level of over or uder estmato s more tesve for larger parameter values of p. Further, the crease sample sze reduces the posteror rs of estmate of p.the crease proporto of a compoet the mxture does ot guaraty the reducto posteror rs of p. As the cut off sesor value gets fty, the complete sample estmators ad posteror rss are greatly smplfed. Also posteror rss of the complete sample estmates are expected to be reduced further as these are clear from the effect of cesorg tme. All the Bayes estmates get more precse wth the crease sample sze such that posteror rs usg Jeffreys pror s less tha the posteror rs of Uform pror. I real lfe example, the estmates ad are uder estmated but much greater tha the respectve sample mea lfetme hours what s expected cesored samples.
