It is among the most recognizable lifetime models. The purpose of this research is to look into a new and important aspect of the inverse Lomax distribution: the calculation of the fuzzy stress-strength reliability parameter RF = P(Y < X), asĀ­suming X and Y are random independent variables that follow the inverse Lomax probability distribution. The properties of structural for the proposed reliability model are studied along with the Bayesian estimation methods, maximum product of the spacing and maximum likelihood. Extensive simulation studies are achieved to explore the performance of the various estimates. Subsequently, two sets of real data are considered to highlight the practicability of the model.
