In recent years, several of new improved probability distributions have been discovered from the current distributions to facilitate their applications in various areas. A new three-parameter model extended from the linear failure rate model, the so called the type II half logistic linear failure rate distribution. Some mathematical properties of the new distribution are proposed. Explicit expressions for the moments, probability weighted moments and order statistics are calculated. Maximum likelihood estimation method is assessed to estimate the model parameters are presented. The superiority of the new distribution is illustrated with an application to one real data set.

In this paper, we introduce a new family of continuous distributions called the beta transmuted Dagum distribution which extends the beta and transmuted familys. The genesis of the beta distribution and transmuted map is used to develop the so-called beta transmuted Dagum (BTD) distribution. The hazard function, moments, moment generating function, quantiles and stress-strength of the beta transmuted Dagum distribution (BTD) are provided and discussed in detail. The method of maximum likelihood estimation is used for estimating the model parameters. A simulation study is carried out to show the performance of the maximum likelihood estimate of parameters of the new distribution. The usefulness of the new model is illustrated through an application to a real data set.

A new family of probability distributions is defined and applied for modeling symmetric real-life datasets. Some new bivariate type G families using Farlie–Gumbel–Morgenstern copula, modified Farlie–Gumbel–Morgenstern copula, Clayton copula and Renyi’s entropy copula are derived. Moreover, some of its statistical properties are presented and studied. Next, the maximum likelihood estimation method is used. A graphical assessment based on biases and mean squared errors is introduced. Based on this assessment, the maximum likelihood method performs well and can be used for estimating the model parameters. Finally, two symmetric real-life applications to illustrate the importance and flexibility of the new family are proposed. The symmetricity of the real data is proved nonparametrically using the kernel density estimation method.

This work provides a new statistical distribution named Cubic rank transmuted Inverse Weibull distribution which was developed using the cubic transmutation map. Various statistical properties of the new distribution which includes: hazard function, moments, moment generating function, skewness, kurtosis, Renyl entropy and the order statistics were studied. A maximum likelihood estimation method was used in estimating the parameters of the distribution. Applications to real data set show the tractability of the distribution over other distributions and its sub-model.

A new lifetime model, with four positive parameters, called the Weibull Birnbaum-Saunders distribution is proposed. The proposed model extends the Birnbaum-Saunders distribution and provides great flexibility in modeling data in practice. Some mathematical properties of the new distribution are obtained including expansions for the cumulative and density functions, moments, generating function, mean deviations, order statistics and reliability. Estimation of the model parameters is carried out by the maximum likelihood estimation method. A simulation study is presented to show the performance of the maximum likelihood estimates of the model parameters. The flexibility of the new model is examined by applying it to two real data sets.

A new compound distribution called Burr XII-Weibull-Logarithmic (BWL) distribution is introduced and its properties are explored. This new distribution contains several new and well known sub-models, including Burr XII-Exponential-Logarithmic, Burr XII-Rayleigh-Logarithmic, Burr XII-Logarithmic, Lomax-Exponential-Logarithmic, Lomax–Rayleigh-Logarithmic, Weibull, Rayleigh, Lomax, Lomax-Logarithmic, Weibull-Logarithmic, Rayleigh-Logarithmic, and Exponential-Logarithmic distributions. Some statistical properties of the proposed distribution including moments and conditional moments are presented. Maximum likelihood estimation technique is used to estimate the model parameters. Finally, applications of the model to real data sets are presented to illustrate the usefulness of the proposed distribution.

In this study, we have introduced a three-parameter probabilistic model established from type I half logistic-Generating family called half logistic modified exponential distribution. The mathematical and statistical properties of this distribution are also explored. The behavior of probability density, hazard rate, and quantile functions are investigated. The model parameters are estimated using the three well known estimation methods namely maximum likelihood estimation (MLE), least-square estimation (LSE) and Cramer-Von-Mises estimation (CVME) methods. Further, we have taken a real data set and verified that the presented model is quite useful and more flexible for dealing with a real data set.

The main object of this paper is to develop an alternative construction for the bimodal skew-normal distribution. The construction is based upon a study of the mixture of skew-normal distributions. We study some basic properties of this family, its stochastic representations and expressions for its moments. Parameters are estimated using the maximum likelihood estimation method. A simulation study is carried out to observe the performance of the maximum likelihood estimators. Finally, we compare the efficiency of the new distribution with other distributions in the literature using a real data set. The study shows that the proposed approach presents satisfactory results.

We study a new two-parameter lifetime model called the exponentiated generalized standardized half-logistic distribution, which extends the half-logistic pioneered by Balakrishnan in the eighties. We provide explicit expressions for the moments, generating and quantile functions, mean deviations, Bonferroni and Lorenz curves, and order statistics. The model parameters are estimated by the maximum likelihood method. A simulation study reveals that the estimators have desirable properties such as small biases and variances even in moderate sample sizes. We prove empirically that the new distribution provides a better fit to a real data set than other competitive models.

In this paper, we propose a new lifetime distribution called the generalized weighted Rama (GWR) distribution, which extends the two-parameter Rama distribution and has the Rama distribution as a special case. The GWR distribution has the ability to model data sets that have positive skewness and upside-down bathtub shape hazard rate. Expressions for mathematical and reliability properties of the GWR distribution have been derived. Estimation of parameters was achieved using the method of maximum likelihood estimation and a simulation was performed to verify the stability of the maximum likelihood estimates of the model parameters. The asymptotic confidence intervals of the parameters of the proposed distribution are obtained. The applicability of the GWR distribution was illustrated with a real data set and the results obtained show that the GWR distribution is a better candidate for the data than the other competing distributions being investigated.
