Abstract
Step-stress is a special type of accelerated life-testing procedure that allows the experimenter to test the units of interest under various stress conditions changed (usually increased) at different intermediate time points. In this paper, we study the problem of testing hypothesis for the scale parameter of a simple step-stress model with exponential lifetimes and under Type-II censoring. We consider several modifications of the log-likelihood ratio statistic and eliminate the distributional dependence on the unknown lifetime parameters by exploiting the scale invariant properties of the normalized failure spacings. The presented results and the ratio statistic are further generalized to the multilevel step-stress case under the log-link assumption. We compare the power performance of the proposed tests via Monte Carlo simulations. As an illustration, the described procedures are applied to a real data example from the literature.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
