birnbaum_importance R Documentation
Birnbaum reliability importance
Description
The Birnbaum importance of component j at component reliabilities
p is dR/dp_j = R(p with p_j = 1) - R(p with p_j = 0). Measures
how much the system reliability changes if j moves between certain
failure and certain success (and, by monotonicity, the rate of
change at any intermediate p_j).
Usage
birnbaum_importance(x, j, p)
## S3 method for class 'dist_structure'
birnbaum_importance(x, j, p)
Arguments
x
A dist_structure object.
j
Component index.
p
Numeric vector of length ncomponents(x) or a scalar in
[0, 1].
Value
Numeric scalar in [0, 1].
