We study some mathematical properties of a new generator of continuous distributions with two extra parameters called the exponentiated half-logistic family. We present some special models. We investigate the shapes of the density and hazard rate function. We derive explicit expressions for the ordinary and incomplete moments, quantile and generating functions, probability weighted moments, Bonferroni and Lorenz curves, Shannon and Rényi entropies, and order statistics, which hold for any baseline model. We introduce two bivariate extensions of this family. We discuss the estimation of the model parameters by maximum likelihood and demonstrate the potentiality of the new family by means of two real data sets.

We propose a new generator of univariate continuous distributions with two extra parameters called the transmuted odd-Lindley generator which extends the odd Lindely-G family introduced by Gomes-Silva et al. [1]. Some mathematical properties of the new generator such as, the ordinary and incomplete moments, generating function, stress strength model, Rényi entropy, probability weighted moments and order statistics are investigated. Certain characterisations of the proposed family are estimated. We discuss the maximum likelihood estimates and the observed information matrix for the model parameters. The potentiality of the new family is illustrated by means of five applications to real data sets.

AbstractWe introduce a new family of univariate continuous distributions called the Marshall–Olkin transmuted-G family which extends the transmuted-G family pioneered by Shaw and Buckley (2007). Special models for the new family are provided. Some of its mathematical properties including quantile measure, explicit expressions for the ordinary and incomplete moments, generating function, Rényi and Shannon entropies, order statistics and probability weighted moments are derived. The estimation of the model parameters is performed by maximum likelihood. The flexibility of the proposed family is illustrated by means of two applications to real data sets.

In this paper, a new generator of continuous distributions called the odd flexible Weibull-H family is proposed and studied. Some of its statistical properties including quantile, skewness, kurtosis, hazard rate function, moments, incomplete moments, mean deviations, coefficient of variation, Bonferroni and Lorenz curves, moments of the residual (past) lifetimes and entropies are studied. Two special models are introduced and discussed in-detail. The maximum likelihood method is used to estimate the model parameters based on complete and upper record data. Adetailed simulation study is carried out to examine the bias and mean square error of maximum likelihood estimators. Finally, three applications to real data sets show the flexibility of the new family.

We introduce and study general mathematical properties of a new generator of continuous distributions with two extra parameters called the Generalized transmuted family of distributions. We present some special models. We investigate the asymptotes and shapes. The new density function can be expressed as a linear combination of exponentiated densities based on the same baseline distribution.  We obtain explicit expressions for the ordinary and incomplete moments and generating functions, Bonferroni and Lorenz curves, asymptotic distribution of the extreme values, Shannon and Renyi entropies and order statistics, which hold for any baseline model, certain characterisations are presented. Further, we introduce a bivariate extensions of the new family. We discuss the different method of estimation of the model parameters  and illustrate the potentiality of the family by means of two applications to real data. A brief simulation for evaluating Maximum likelihood estimator is done.

Based on the Nadarajah Haghighi distribution and the Topp Leone-G family in view of the T-X family, we introduce a new generator of continuous distributions with three extra parameters called the Nadarajah Haghighi Topp Leone-G family. Three sub-models of the new class are discussed. Main mathematical properties of the new family are investigated such as; quantile function, raw and incomplete moments, Bonferroni and Lorenz curves, moment and probability generating functions, stress-strength model, Shanon and Rényi entropies, order statistics and probability weighted moments. The model parameters of the new family is estimated by using the method of maximum likelihood and the observed information matrix is also obtained. We introduce two real applications to show the importance of the new family.

We study a new family of distributions defined by the minimum of the Poissonrandom number of independent identically distributed random variables having a general Weibull-G distribution (see Bourguignon et al. (2014)). Some mathematical properties of the new family including ordinary and incomplete moments, quantile and generating functions, mean deviations, order statistics, reliability and entropies are derived. Maximum likelihood estimation of the model parameters is investigated. Three special models of the new family are discussed. We perform three applications to real data sets to show the potentiality of theproposed family.

We introduce a new class of continuous distributions called the complementary generalized transmuted Poisson-G family, which extends the transmuted class pioneered by Shaw and Buckley (2007). We provide some special models and derive general mathematical properties including quantile function, explicit expressions for the ordinary and incomplete moments, generating function, Rényi and Shannon entropies and order statistics. The estimation of the model parameters is performed by maximum likelihood. The flexibility of the new family is illustrated by means of two applications to real data sets.

In this paper, we propose a new class of continuous distributions called the exponentiated generalized Topp Leone-G family that extends the Topp Leone-G family introduced by Al-Shomrani et al. (2016). We derive explicit expressions for certain mathematical properties of the new family such as; ordinary and incomplete moments, generating functions, reliability analysis, Lorenz and Bonferroni curves, Rényi entropy, stress strength model, moment of residual and reversed residual life, order statistics and extreme values. We discuss the maximum likelihood estimates and the observed information matrix for the model parameters. Two real data sets are used to illustrate the flexibility of the new family.

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.
