A Parameter Estimation Method of Shock Model Constructed with Phase-Type Distribution on the Condition of Interval Data

The phase-type distribution (also known as PH distribution) has mathematical properties of denseness and closure in calculation and is, therefore, widely used in shock model constructions describing occurrence time of a shock or its damage. However, in the case of samples with only interval data, mo...
