AbstractIn this paper, a new bivariate discrete distribution is defined and studied in-detail, in the so-called the bivariate exponentiated discrete Weibull distribution. Several of its statistical properties including the joint cumulative distribution function, joint probability mass function, joint hazard rate function, joint moment generating function, mathematical expectation and reliability function for stress–strength model are derived. Its marginals are exponentiated discrete Weibull distributions. Hence, these marginals can be used to analyze the hazard rates in the discrete cases. The model parameters are estimated using the maximum likelihood method. Simulation study is performed to discuss the bias and mean square error of the estimators. Finally, two real data sets are analyzed to illustrate the flexibility of the proposed model.

In this paper, we have defined a new two-parameter new Lindley half Cauchy (NLHC) distribution using Lindley-G family of distribution which accommodates increasing, decreasing and a variety of monotone failure rates. The statistical properties of the proposed distribution such as probability density function, cumulative distribution function, quantile, the measure of skewness and kurtosis are presented. We have briefly described the three well-known estimation methods namely maximum likelihood estimators (MLE), least-square (LSE) and Cramer-Von-Mises (CVM) methods. All the computations are performed in R software. By using the maximum likelihood method, we have constructed the asymptotic confidence interval for the model parameters. We verify empirically the potentiality of the new distribution in modeling a real data set.

The estimation of the model parameters has been done by using maximum likelihood method. The eectiveness of proposed model is analyzed by means of a real data sets. Finally, some concluding remarks are given.

This article proposes a novel class of bivariate distributions that are completely defined by stating their conditionals as Poisson exponential distributions. Numerous statistical properties of this distribution are also examined here, including the conditional probability mass function (PMF) and moments of the new class. The techniques of maximum likelihood and pseudolikelihood are used to estimate the model parameters. Additionally, the effectiveness of the bivariate Poisson exponential conditional (BPEC) distribution is compared to that of the bivariate Poisson conditional (BPC), the bivariate Poisson (BP), the bivariate Poisson–Lindley (BPL), and the bivariate negative binomial (BNB) distributions using a real-world dataset. The findings of Akaike information criterion (AIC) and Bayesian information criterion (BIC) reveal that the BPEC distribution performs better than the other distributions considered in this study. As a result, the authors claim that this distribution may be used to fit dependent and overspread count data.

In this paper, we concentrate on the statistical properties of Gamma-X family of distributions. A special case of this family is the Gamma-Weibull distribution. Therefore, the statistical properties of Gamma-Weibull distribution as a sub-model of Gamma-X family are discussed such as moments, variance, skewness, kurtosis and Rényi entropy. Also, the parameters of the Gamma-Weibull distribution are estimated by the method of maximum likelihood. Some sub-models of the Gamma-X are investigated, including the cumulative distribution, probability density, survival and hazard functions. The Monte Carlo simulation study is conducted to assess the performances of these estimators. Finally, the adequacy of Gamma-Weibull distribution in data modeling is verified by the two clinical real data sets. Mathematics Subject Classification: 62E99; 62E15

This work introduces a new one-parameter compound G family. Relevant statistical properties are derived. The new density can be “asymmetric right skewed with one peak and a heavy tail”, “symmetric” and “left skewedwith one peak”. The new hazard function can be “upside-down”, “upside-down-constant”, “increasing”, “decreasing” and “decreasing-constant”. Many bivariate types have been also derived via different common copulas. The estimation of the model parameters is performed by maximum likelihood method. The usefulness and flexibility of the new family is illustrated by means of two real data sets.

Our purpose in this study includes introducing a new family of distributions as an alternative to beta-G (B-G) distribution with flexible hazard rate and greater reliability which we call Truncated Weibull-G (TW-G) distribution. We shall discuss several submodels of the family in detail. Then, its mathematical properties such as expansions, probability density function and cumulative distribution function, moments, moment generating function, order statistics, entropies, unimodality, stochastic comparison with the B-G distribution and stress-strength reliability function are studied. Moreover, we study shape of the density and hazard rate functions, and based on the maximum likelihood method, estimate parameters of the model. Finally, we apply the model to a real data set and compare B-G distribution with our proposed model.

The present paper is devoted to introduce a four-parameter modification of new flexible Weibull distribution. The proposed model will be called modified new flexible Weibull distribution, able to model lifetime phenomena with increasing or bathtub-shaped failure rates. Some of its mathematical properties will be studied. The approach of maximum likelihood will be used for estimating the model parameters. A brief mathematical description for the reliability function will also be discussed. The usefulness of the proposed distribution will be illustrated by an application to a real data set.

In this paper, we introduced the discrete analogue of the continuous Marshall-Olkin Weibull distribution using the discrete concentration approach. Some mathematical properties of the proposed discrete distribution such as the probability mass function, cumulative distribution function, survival function, hazard rate function, second rate of failure, probability generating function, quantile function and moments are derived. The method of maximum likelihood estimation is employed to estimate the unknown parameters of the proposed distribution. The applicability of the proposed discrete distribution was examined using an over-dispersed and under-dispersed data sets.

A new extension of the Poisson Inverse Weibull distribution is derived and studied in details. Number of structural mathematical properties are derived. We used the well-known maximum likelihood method for estimating the model parameters. The new model is applied for modeling some real data sets to prove its importance and flexibility empirically.

Unit distributions are commonly used in probability and statistics to describe useful quantities with values between 0 and 1, such as proportions, probabilities, and percentages. Some unit distributions are defined in a natural analytical manner, and the others are derived through the transformation of an existing distribution defined in a greater domain. In this article, we introduce the unit gamma/Gompertz distribution, founded on the inverse-exponential scheme and the gamma/Gompertz distribution. The gamma/Gompertz distribution is known to be a very flexible three-parameter lifetime distribution, and we aim to transpose this flexibility to the unit interval. First, we check this aspect with the analytical behavior of the primary functions. It is shown that the probability density function can be increasing, decreasing, “increasing-decreasing” and “decreasing-increasing”, with pliant asymmetric properties. On the other hand, the hazard rate function has monotonically increasing, decreasing, or constant shapes. We complete the theoretical part with some propositions on stochastic ordering, moments, quantiles, and the reliability coefficient. Practically, to estimate the model parameters from unit data, the maximum likelihood method is used. We present some simulation results to evaluate this method. Two applications using real data sets, one on trade shares and the other on flood levels, demonstrate the importance of the new model when compared to other unit models.
