Take the derivative of a product of sequence












2














How to take the derivative of $prod_{i=1}^{n}(1-e^{-lambda _{i}cdot x})I(x>0)$ with regard to x?



Here $F(X)=prod_{i=1}^{n}(1-e^{-lambda _{i}cdot x})I(x>0)$ is a CDF, and I want to take the derivative of it and get the pdf of X.



I try to take the log of F(X), so $frac{d}{d x}logF(x)=frac{d logF(x)}{d F(x)}cdot frac{d F(x)}{d x}$,



@Ankit Kumar help me with:



$$frac{d(logF(x))}{dx}=sum_{i=1}^nfrac{d(log(1-e^{-lambda_ix}))}{dx}$$,
then $$frac{1}{F(x)}frac{d(F(x))}{dx}=sum_{i=1}^nfrac{1}{log(1-e^{-lambda_ix})}{lambda_ie^{-lambda_ix}}$$, but I don't know how to move on with $frac{d(F(x))}{dx}=sum_{i=1}^nfrac{1}{log(1-e^{-lambda_ix})}{lambda_ie^{-lambda_ix}}cdot prod_{i=1}^{n}(1-e^{-lambda _{i}cdot x})$, how to simplify it? since it is a multiplication of a sum of sequence and a product of sequence.

          Here is another approach. Recall the product formula $(fcdot g)^{prime}=f^{prime}cdot g+fcdot g^{prime}$ of the product of two differentiable functions $f,g$. We can generalise this (and for instance prove it with induction) and obtain
          begin{align*}
          color{blue}{left(prod_{j=1}^n f_j(x)right)^{prime}}
          &=left(f_1(x)right)^prime prod_{j=2}^nf_j(x)+f_1(x)left(prod_{j=2}^n f_j(x)right)^prime\
          &=left(f_1(x)right)^prime prod_{j=2}^nf_j(x)+f_1(x)left(left(f_2(x)right)^prime prod_{j=3}^nf_j(x)+f_2(x)left(prod_{j=3}^n f_j(x)right)^primeright)\
          &=left(f_1(x)right)^prime prod_{{j=1}atop{jne 1}}^nf_j(x)+left(f_2(x)right)^prime prod_{{j=1}atop{jne 2}}^nf_j(x)+f_1(x)f_2(x)left(prod_{j=3}^n f_j(x)right)^prime\
          & vdots\
          &=left(f_1(x)right)^prime prod_{{j=1}atop{jne 1}}^nf_j(x)+left(f_2(x)right)^prime prod_{{j=1}atop{jne 2}}^nf_j(x)
          +cdots+left(f_n(x)right)^prime prod_{{j=1}atop{jne n}}^nf_j(x)\
          &,,color{blue}{=sum_{k=1}^nleft(f_k(x)right)^{prime} prod_{{j=1}atop{jne k}}^nf_j(x)}tag{1}
          end{align*}




          We obtain according to (1)
          begin{align*}
          frac{d}{dx}left(prod_{j=1}^nleft(1-e^{-lambda_j x}right)right)
          &=sum_{k=1}^nleft(frac{d}{dx}left(1-e^{-lambda_k x}right)right)prod_{{j=1}atop{jne k}}^nleft(1-e^{-lambda_j x}right)\
