Z Zhang · Chinese Journal of Applied Probability and Statisties · 2005
Failure intensities of most main nonhomogeneous Poisson process (NHPP) models satisfies order constrained condition. This paper presents restrained maximum likelihood estimator (RML) of failure intensity under the condition, discusses some properties of RML. Through RML of failure intensities weighted least square estimation of parameters of NHPP model is obtained.
