• Survival Analysis (Kaplan-Meier Estimation)

  Use to estimate survival (or failure) rates. Kaplan-Meier estimation methods (also known as  product limit estimation) is a non-parametric method and thus does not require many assumptions typically required in parametric methods (e.g., not needing to assume a specific probabiliy distribution to model the data). The method can be used with censored (incomplete) data. Note: Though frequently used ...

• Accelerated Life Testing (Fit Life by X)

  Use to model the relationship a factor has on the time-to-event. It is often used to model a factor that accelerates the event as a means to predict the time-to-event for normal operating conditions where failures do not frequently occur. This platform is able to analyze data that is censored (incomplete).  Accelerated Testing (Fit Life by X) From an open JMP^® data table, select Analyze > Reliabi...
