Abstract

In the determination of a reliability life model in 3-parameter Weibull distribution, there was large error and inefficient problem in parameter evaluation. Firstly, the maximum likelihood equation was made. Then the deficiency, lied in steps of using traditional genetic algorithm to solve the maximum likelihood equations, was optimized. An adaptive genetic algorithm was obtained that can be used to solve the maximum likelihood equations. Finally, compared the simulation results in MATLAB between adaptive genetic algorithm and traditional genetic algorithm, it can be concluded that the adaptive genetic algorithm was more efficiency and adaptable than the traditional genetic algorithm. This method also provided a reference to solving the similar problem in parameter evaluation.
