dc.description.abstractPiecewise models have gained popularity as a useful tool in reliability and quality control/monitoring, particularly when the process data deviates from a normal distribution. In this study, we develop maximum likelihood estimators (MLEs) for the process capability indices, denoted as $ C_{pk} $ Cpk, $ C_{pm} $ Cpm, $ C<^>{*}_{pm} $ Cpm & lowast; and $ C_{pmk} $ Cpmk, using a semiparametric model. To remove the bias in the MLEs with small sample sizes, we propose a bias-correction approach to obtain improved estimates. Furthermore, we extend the proposed method to situations where the change-points in the density function are unknown. To estimate the model parameters efficiently, we employ the profiled maximum likelihood approach. Our simulation study reveals that the suggested method yields accurate estimates with low bias and mean squared error. Finally, we provide real-world data applications to demonstrate the superiority of the proposed procedure over existing ones.
