A new clustering-function-based formulation of temporal and spatial clustering model involving area scaling and its application to parameter extraction

clustering-function formulation of temporal and spatial clustering model for dielectric breakdown
We develop a new clustering-function-based formulation of the clustering model and successfully apply it for parameter extraction . This new formulation unifies the Weibull model and the clustering into the same mathematical framework but maintains their respective statistical characteristics. With this new parameter extraction methodology, this clustering model can be used to replace the decades-old Weibull model for the assessment of BD data and reliability projection because experimental samples always involve some degree of variability.
