Abstract

The present communication considers a discrete dynamic measure of inaccuracy between two residual and past lifetime distributions. Under the assumption that the true distribution F and reference distribution G satisfy the proportional hazard model (PHM) and proportional reversed hazard model (PRHM), it has been shown that the proposed measures determines the lifetime distribution uniquely. A relation between Kerridge inaccuracy,residual inaccuracy and past inaccuracy has been explored.
