Laplace Transform Characterization of Probabilistic Orderings
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 27 July 2009
Abstract
Using the Laplace transform, we characterize, by means of necessary and sufficient conditions, the property that two life distributions are ordered in the sense of stochastic ordering, hazard rate ordering, backward hazard rate ordering, and likelihood ratio ordering.
