Description

Component life distribution parameter estimation method based on random SEM algorithm
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of digital computing or data processing equipment or methods specially suitable for specific applications, and particularly relates to a component life distribution parameter estimation method based on a random SEM algorithm.
Background
Currently, the current state of the art commonly used in the industry is as follows: in 1985, the concept of signature and its basic calculation was first proposed by samanigo in 1985, from which signature vectors began to be tried into the methods and tools of system reliability research; later in 1999, kocha et al developed that the life distribution function of the system could be expressed by a mixture of signature vectors and component life distribution functions, further establishing a relationship between the vectors and the system; in addition, boland in 2001, provided a system-way-set-number-based associated system Signature calculation method. Through the above work, the concept of system Signature is widely and deeply applied by people to various branches of system reliability research. However, at the same time, because of the limitation of the existing signature-based method (the calculated system life structure function is often complex), a lot of time is consumed in the solving process, and estimation and calculation of parameters are not facilitated, so that the method becomes a hot spot and a difficult problem in parameter estimation of the life distribution of the system components. Meanwhile, a key link for predicting the service life of the system is to estimate unknown parameters and determine whether the prediction of the service life of the system is accurate or not. To date scholars have explored several algorithms for parameter estimation for the system component lifetime distribution, such as: an optimal linear unbiased estimation algorithm aiming at single-side deletion of a system, an optimal linear unbiased estimation algorithm, a moment estimation algorithm, a Bayesian algorithm, a maximum likelihood estimation algorithm, a regression estimation algorithm and the like. In the prior art, the distribution and linear inference of the service life of the component are discussed in a parameter estimation method based on optimal linear unbiased estimation on the service life distribution of the system component, and the algorithm derives the optimal linear unbiased estimation of parameters in a general scale parameter group and a position-scale parameter group and gives an accurate calculation formula of variance and covariance. However, this method only considers one component life distribution parameter, and does not take more parameter factors into consideration, which makes it difficult to estimate for systems with uncertain component life distribution families. The calculation method of the second parameter estimation method based on moment estimation on the service life distribution of the system component in the prior art is simpler in principle, and compared with other algorithms, the calculation method has no complicated calculation process, but the method can only obtain more accurate estimation when the sample capacity is larger. In practical applications, the deviation of the estimation result is larger for the case of a smaller number of samples. In the third prior art, the method solves the parameter estimation of the non-monotonic failure rate distribution condition based on the Bayesian estimation on the parameter estimation method of the service life distribution of the system component, but the method depends on the selection of a loss function to a great extent, if the loss function does not well describe the system, the method has great influence on the superiority of the estimated quantity, and the technology is difficult to obtain an estimation result with higher precision under the asymmetric loss condition. The fourth prior art, namely a parameter estimation method for service life distribution of a system component based on maximum likelihood, solves the problem of deleting data by using order statistics, but theory deviation is long, and a numerical method is needed to solve, so that the convergence of a calculation result can be ensured, and the situation that the result is not converged often occurs. The method has the advantages of simplicity and easy understanding, no additional calculation process is needed, an ideal result is given, meanwhile, the operation time is saved, and the method can be used as an initial value of other methods to carry in calculation. However, the method also needs numerical solution, can not completely ensure the convergence of calculation, and when the proportion of missing data is high, the obtained result is often unstable.
In summary, the problems of the prior art are: the existing parameter estimation method for the service life of the system component has the problem of second-order bias which is caused by the fact that the numerical problem of huge calculation amount is needed or the calculation process is complicated and the convergence of the numerical method solution cannot be guaranteed, so that the calculation process has higher time complexity and higher hardware requirements, and finally, the calculation time is long and the precision is not high, and the method is not beneficial to being applied to projects with higher requirements on time and precision; in addition, in the prior art, most systems aiming at single-side deletion are adopted, and the situation of double-side deletion of type II is considered to be less, so that no suitable method aiming at double-side deletion systems exists at present, and a plurality of double-side deletion systems exist in the engineering fields of aerospace, construction and the like, and the development of partial fields is slow due to the lack of research and the blank of technology. The application range of the original method has a certain limitation, and the method is particularly embodied in a model which can only be used for unilateral deletion with low time requirements and low precision requirements in engineering.
Difficulty and meaning for solving the technical problems: in the parameter estimation of the system component lifetime distribution, if the system component lifetime is unknown, the calculation is difficult by the conventional method, and if the conventional component lifetime distribution is brought in, the accuracy of the estimation is reduced. If the situation that the result of the calculation value solution is lengthy and the second-order partial derivative cannot be converged occurs, the prior art is difficult to execute, so that the application range of the signature method is narrower. In addition, in the case of II-type bilateral deletion, the difficulty in estimating the parameters of the component is increased due to the deletion of bilateral data, and the accuracy of estimation is reduced. The superiority of parameter estimation of component life distribution can affect the accuracy of prediction of system life; only if a wide application range is found, the parameter distribution of the service life of the component can be accurately estimated, and the service life of the system can be accurately predicted.

The method for estimating the service life distribution parameters of the system component under the II-type bilateral deleting system based on the signature vector provided by the embodiment of the invention comprises the following steps:
(1) Derivation of system lifetime distribution function and likelihood function
The random variable of the component lifetime is denoted by X, and the random variable of the system lifetime is denoted by T. The cumulative distribution function (cdf), probability density function (pdf), survival function (sf) of X are expressed as

Because the failure sequence of n independent co-distributed components has n-! One possible setting, each with a specific order of component failure. Then assuming omega of the ith system failure arrangement, the ith component of the system signature vector is finally obtained as s i =ω/n!。
By combining densities of the order statistics (X (l), X (2), …, X (r)), a survival function of the system lifetime is derived using the assumed cumulative lifetime distribution function (weibull distribution) of the individual components of the system:

Description of tracking problem, i.e., assuming m systems with n parts placed in life test, signature of each system is (s 1 ,s 2 ...s n ). In the life test, starting from the first system failure experiment, the experiment is terminated when the r-th system fails, wherein l and r are 1 < l < r < m determined by the experimenter. The observed failure time of the sequence system is T l:m <T l+1:m <…<T r:m And obtaining a type II bilateral deletion system life sample. The invention is mainly used for researching the estimation of parameters of the service life distribution of the component by observing service life data of the system, so that all service life test data are assumed to be obtained.
How to make accurate parameter estimation of the component life distribution of the system is the primary task to be solved. Inaccuracy in parameter estimation of component life distribution is mainly due to the fact that data loss occurs in the observed samples. In an actual life test, the failure time of all systems is often not recorded completely, and the failure time of the systems is still not failed beyond the life test time, so that the right tail of the observed data is deleted, and the failure time of the first few systems is too short to record or lose, so that the left tail of the observed data is deleted. These missing data may render inaccurate parameter estimation of the component life distribution. Therefore, in the parameter estimation of the service life distribution of the system component, the influence of different deletion conditions needs to be considered, so that the accurate estimation of the parameter of the service life distribution of the component is ensured. In addition, the amount of the deleted data also affects the parameter estimation of the component life distribution, and the more the deleted data is, the more inaccurate the estimation is. On the other hand, the influence of the algorithm itself is considered, the accuracy of the point estimation and the interval estimation generated by different algorithms is different, and the estimation deviation is different.
The principle of application of the invention is further described below in connection with specific embodiments.
Assuming that in life test, the observed failure time of the serial system is T l:m <T l+1:m <…<T r:m If the data are directly used as complete data to carry out parameter estimation, the influence of the data deleted on the two sides on the component parameters is ignored. It is therefore necessary to supplement the observed test data to obtain a pseudo-complete sample.
The method for estimating the component life distribution parameters of the II type bilateral deleting system based on the random SEM algorithm provided by the embodiment of the invention specifically comprises the following steps:
step one, calculating a system signature vector S according to a system structure function Γ (s 1 ,s 2 ...s n ) Order signature vector
Figure BDA0001844293360000141
Assuming omega is arranged for the ith system failure, the ith component of the signature vector of the system is obtained as follows:
Figure BDA0001844293360000151
assuming event a is that the kth order system failure is caused by the ith order component failure. M system lives are generated for a given system and the failure of which component is observed to cause the system to fail, and the process is repeated N times. The order system signature vector may be approximated as:

step two, using the cumulative distribution function F of the component life X And System signature vector S Γ Survival function representing system lifetime

For n independent co-distributed component systems, X represents the random variable of component life and T represents the random variable of system life. Survival function of System lifetime->

The method comprises the following steps:

step three, a random SEM algorithm is established to estimate the component parameters: s, combining the order system signature and the conditional probability vector to obtain a life estimation sample, and M, bringing the estimation sample into a likelihood function and maximizing an update parameter. Repeating the step S and the step M, and iterating to obtain the component parameter estimated value.
And step four, constructing a confidence interval. The bilateral 100 (1- α)% confidence interval for the component distribution parameters μ and σ can be constructed as follows

The application effect of the invention is described in detail below in connection with a simulation experiment based on Monte Carlo:
1. simulation conditions
Three systems with different signature and system structure functions are considered in simulation research:
system 1 is a 3-part parallel-serial system with system signature (1/3, 2/3, 0) and structure function ψ (X) =min { X 1 ,max{X 2 ,X 3 }}。
System 2 is a 4-component parallel-serial system with system signature of (1/4, 1/2, 0) and structure function of ψ (X) =min { X 1 ,max{X 2 ,X 3 ,X 4 }}。
System 3 is a 4-component hybrid parallel system with system signature of (0, 1/2, 1/4) and structure function of ψ (X) =max { X 1 ,min{X 2 ,X 3 ,X 4 }}。
The Weibull distribution is a widely used lifetime distribution in survivability modeling due to its flexibility. Let Y be a random variable subject to Weibull distribution, then the cumulative distribution function of X is:
Figure BDA0001844293360000171
since the random variable x= lnY obeys the minimum extremum distribution, the minimum extremum distribution belongs to the family of position scale distributions. Therefore, the logarithm of the service life is more convenient to calculate. The cumulative distribution function of the random variable x= lnY is:
Figure BDA0001844293360000172
assuming that the component life distribution of the three systems obeys the Weibull distribution, the logarithmic life function obeys the minimum value distribution, the position parameter mu=1 and the scale parameter sigma=0.5 are set for simulation study.
The experiment of Monte Carlo size samples is carried out on the component life through parameter estimation by adopting a random SEM algorithm, the simulation process is repeated 10000 times, the deviation and the mean square error of the point estimation, the coverage rate and the expected width of the confidence interval are given based on 10000 times of simulation, and the results are calculated by the following formulas:
estimating deviation:
Figure BDA0001844293360000173
mean square error:
Figure BDA0001844293360000174
coverage rate:
Figure BDA0001844293360000175
confidence interval average width:
Figure BDA0001844293360000181
ideal results: the smaller the estimated bias, mean square error, confidence interval average width, the better, and the larger the coverage ratio, the better.
2. Small sample simulation
For small sample simulation, the invention considers the situation that m=10 systems exist in one life test experiment, and obtains a type II double-side deleted sample data from the beginning of the record of the failure of the first system to the stopping of the failure of the r system. Where l and r are determined by the erasure rate q, as in equation (27), equation (28):
Figure BDA0001844293360000182
Figure BDA0001844293360000183
in small sample simulation, because the data are less, when the deletion rate is more than 50%, only a few data can be utilized, the deviation of parameter estimation can be greatly increased, and reasonable estimation accuracy cannot be ensured. Therefore, in small samples, only cases where the erasure rate is 50% -0% are considered. Calculating the estimated deviation, the mean square error, the coverage rate of the confidence interval and the expected width of the small sample. The results of the operation of systems 1-3 are shown in fig. 2-4.
3. Medium to large sample emulation
For medium to large sample simulation, the invention considers the situation that m=50 systems exist in one life test experiment, and similar to a small sample, the invention also obtains a type II double-side deleted sample data from the beginning of the failure record of the first system to the stopping of the failure of the r system. Where l and r are the same as the erasure rate q as shown in equations (27) (28). The estimated bias, mean square error, coverage of confidence interval and expected width of the medium to large samples are calculated. The results of the operation of systems 1-3 are shown in fig. 5-7.
Analysis of the above estimation results generated by random SEM algorithm, and comparison of the simulation result graph results can find that the results of the systems 1,2, 3 expressed in random SEM simulation are similar, and considering this fact, the system 2 (4-component parallel-serial system, system signature is (1/4, 1/2, 0), and the structure function is ψ (X) =min { X ] 1 ,max{X 2 ,X 3 ,X 4 Analysis was performed as a representative and compared with the prior art using a method based on maximum likelihood and a regression-based estimation method.
1. For small sample analysis
In terms of estimated deviation, the invention discovers that the estimated deviation obtained by a random SEM algorithm tends to zero, and the deviation of SEM to mu and sigma is negative; in terms of mean square error, the random SEM algorithm can control the mean square error to be within 0.05, while the traditional method can only control the deviation to be within 0.8. The random algorithm is significantly better for μ and σ estimation than the previous method. In terms of coverage rate, a random SEM algorithm can ensure reasonable coverage rate; the confidence interval estimation for μmay be within 0.8 and the confidence interval estimation for σ may be within 0.5 over the average width length of the confidence interval.
2. For large sample analysis
In terms of estimated deviation, the estimated deviation of a large sample also tends to be zero, positive and negative deviations are consistent with the appearance of a small sample, and the estimated deviation is still that the random SEM is negative to mu and sigma deviations; in the aspect of the mean square error, the mean square error of a large sample is obviously smaller than that of a small sample, and the mean square error can be controlled within the range of 0.005; in terms of coverage, a large sample can obtain higher coverage; the estimation of the large sample is also less accurate over the average width of the confidence interval, the confidence interval of mu is controlled to be 0.30, and the confidence interval of sigma can be controlled to be within 0.45.
3. Overall analysis
In the simulation, increasing the erasure rate deteriorates the performance of both the point estimation and the section estimation, specifically, the variance estimation MSE increases, the coverage CR decreases, and the confidence section WCI becomes longer as the erasure rate increases.
By comparing the small sample with the large sample, the estimated deviation gradually approaches zero when the small sample and the large sample are compared, and the positive and negative deviations are consistent in the large sample and the small sample, and are negative. The estimation effect of large samples can be found to be much better than that of small samples in terms of mean square error, coverage and confidence interval. The number of data samples plays a great role in estimation, and the more the number of samples, the more accurate the estimation. The coverage rate is too small, and when the deletion rate is larger than 50%, the coverage rate cannot reach a reasonable range, so that the deletion rate of the required data cannot be too large when the parameter estimation is performed on the small sample.
The same simulation was performed by the conventional estimation method, and the simulation results based on Maximum Likelihood (MLE) are shown in fig. 8 and 9, and the simulation results based on Regression (REG) are shown in fig. 10 and 11, which are compared with the random SEM algorithm. The estimation accuracy of the random SEM algorithm on point estimation is higher than that of the prior maximum likelihood estimation and regression-based estimation. The performance of the section estimation is not higher than that of the conventional method. The random SEM algorithm is therefore more suitable for point estimation for type II double-sided deletion systems.
The foregoing description of the preferred embodiments of the invention is not intended to be limiting, but rather is intended to cover all modifications, equivalents, and alternatives falling within the spirit and principles of the invention.
