Reliability Estimation with Kaplan-Meier Nonparametric Method

Reliability Estimation with Kaplan-Meier Nonparametric Method

Hello Friends! I am happy to release this video on Kaplan-Meier (KM) nonparametric method to estimate reliability. The KM method is used in situations when the data cannot be modelled using mathematical distributions such as Weibull, Lognormal etc. The KM method is popularly used in medical science to estimate survival probabilities of patients with diseases such as cancer, kidney diseases, etc.

Covid-19 RT-PCR Test, Confusion Matrix and International Travel

Covid-19 RT-PCR Test, Confusion Matrix and International Travel

Dear friends, This is Hemant Urdhwareshe! I am uploading this video, which is different from our other videos! In this video, I have explained the “Confusion Matrix” and related terms such as Sensitivity, Specificity, Accuracy with reference to RT-PCR Test to detect Covid-19 infection. I and my son were isolated for Covid-19 as I was detected Covid-19 positive before my return travel and then isolated for about a fortnight in Egypt! This video is a result of my experience and review of travel rules! I am sure you will find this interesting and thought-provoking!

Remember this Memoryless Exponential Distribution!

Remember this Memoryless Exponential Distribution!

Dear friends, I am happy to release our 59th video on Exponential Distribution! Exponential Distribution is an appropriate mathematical model when failure or hazard rate is constant. It is often known as “Memoryless” as reliability in any time interval is same! Exponential Distribution has many applications in Reliability Engineering such as electronic components. Many reliability procedures in MIL Standards assume constant failure rate and Exponential Distribution! Hope you find the video interesting and useful! Your feedback is welcome!
