Dear Brian and R team,
I am Dr. Aleem and I want to participate as a student in GSoC 2014 in the
development of R. I have extensive experience in Statistical research and
development and I am a student of advanced statistics applications. I
strongly believe that the inclusion of Modified Weibull-G Family
Distribution in R will significanlty help the reseasrch community in doing
reliability/survival analyses. I have expertise in these areas and I would
like to be part of open source development and implement it. May I ask you
for potential mentor(s) who can be my supervisor for GSoC 2014. The details
of project is following:
*Title of project:* Implementation of Modified Weibull -G Family of
Distributions in R
*Description:* This project is intended for the improvements to the life
time data construction for reliability analysis by using Modified Weibull
-G Family of Distributions. The main goal of this project is to utilize
maximum distributions by using the Modified Weibull -G Family of
Distributions for reliability/survival analysis. The probability of a
device not failing prior to some time " t" is reliability function i.e.
R(t). The application of Modified Weibull-G Family of Probability
Distributions in reliability and maintainability is widely used by the
statistical research community to summarizes the shapes of the failure
density, reliability and hazard rate functions and it is important to have
such functionality in R package.
*Importance of Project:* The packages like Matlab are missing the important
packages required to study the application of Modified Weibull-G Family of
Probability Distributions. The statistical research community widely rely
on the application of Weibull -G Family of Distributions. Due to the
importance of the Model and its application, the inclusion of such
implementation in R package is the need of the time for statistical
research community.
Please advise me some mentor so that I can discuss the tasks and my
deliverables. Please let me know if I need to add this project to the wiki
page as this is my own student idea,
Thank you.
Best Regards,
Dr. M Aleem
