Weibull++ Non-Parametric LDA Plot Example

This example shows how to use Weibull++ to do non-parametric LDA analysis. Weibull++ has three different non-parametric LDA method: Kaplan-Meier, Actuarial Standard, and Actuarial Simple. They are very similar.

Assume we have the following data.

Please analyze the above data using Kaplan-Meier method in Weibull++.

Solution

Step 1: Create a Non-Parametric Specialized Folio.

Step 2: Enter the data as given in below Figure:



In the control panel, a confidence level can be entered. Reliability at each State End Time is calculated and plotted together with the confidence bounds.

Step 3: Plot the result.

Since the analysis is done by non-parametric method, only the reliability at the observed state time can be calculated. Non-parametric methods cannot be used for extrapolation and interpolation.

Step 4: The results also can be viewed by clicking Non-Parametric Results:
