The approximate MLE using Artificial Neural Network (ANN) method and the Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods are used to estimate the parameters of the EP model. A procedure is developed to estimate the parameters of the EP model using MCMC simulation method in OpenBUGS by incorporating a module into OpenBUGS. The R functions are developed to study the various statistical properties of the proposed model and the output analysis of MCMC samples generated from OpenBUGS. A real software reliability data set is considered for illustration of the proposed methodology under informative set of priors.
