Özet:

A renewal process is a counting process which counts the number of renewals that occurs as a function of time, wherein the durations between successive renewals are random variables independent of one another, with identical F distributions. The mean value function data is frequently needed in applications of renewal processes. For the renewal function, open expressions depending on distribution function F can be calculated from each other. However, even though the distribution function F is known, the renewal function cannot be obtained analytically except for a few distributions. In this study, in the case that F is totally unknown, life table management and Kaplan-Meier estimator were used depending on random right-censored sampling for the estimation of F value. Then, for the estimation of the renewal function value in the random right-censored data, nonparametric estimators were proposed and the problem of how to calculate these estimators were discussed.
