On the parameter estimation problem of the q-Exponential distribution for reliability applications

This work involved the q-Exponential distribution, which can be used to model each of the three phases of the bathtub curve and is an alternative to the Weibull distribution. The q-Exponential has two parameters (𝑞 – shape; 𝜂 – scale) and it stems from the Tsallis’ non-extensive entropy. This model...
