AbstractIn this article we propose and study a new family of distributions which is defined by using the genesis of the truncated Poisson distribution and the exponentiated generalized-G distribution. Some mathematical properties of the new family including ordinary and incomplete moments, quantile and generating functions, mean deviations, order statistics and their moments, reliability and Shannon entropy are derived. Estimation of the parameters using the method of maximum likelihood is discussed. Although this generalization technique can be used to generalize many other distributions, in this study we present only two special models. The importance and flexibility of the new family is exemplified using real world data.

This work proposes an inverse odd Weibull (IOW) family of distributions for a lifetime distributions. Some mathematical properties of this family of distribution were derived. Survival, hazard, quantiles, reversed hazard, cumulative, odd functions, kurtosis, skewness, order statistics and entropies of this new family of distribution were examined. The parameters of the family of distributions were obtained by maximum likelihood. The behavior of the estimators were studied through simulation. The flexibility and importance of the distribution by means of real data set applications were emphasized.

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.

We proposed a new family of distributions called the Topp Leone exponentiated-G family of distributions with two extra positive shape parameters, which generalizes and also extends the Topp Leone-G family of distributions. We derived some mathematical properties of the proposed family including explicit expressions for the quantile function, ordinary and incomplete moments, generating function and reliability. Some sub-models in the new family were discussed. The method of maximum likelihood was used to estimate the parameters of the sub-model. Further, the potentiality of the family was illustrated by fitting two real data sets to the mentioned sub-models.

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.

This paper is devoted to a new class of distributions called the Box-Cox gamma-G family. It is a natural generalization of the useful Ristić–Balakrishnan-G family of distributions, containing a wide variety of power gamma-G distributions, including the odd gamma-G distributions. The key tool for this generalization is the use of the Box-Cox transformation involving a tuning power parameter. Diverse mathematical properties of interest are derived. Then a specific member with three parameters based on the half-Cauchy distribution is studied and considered as a statistical model. The method of maximum likelihood is used to estimate the related parameters, along with a simulation study illustrating the theoretical convergence of the estimators. Finally, two different real datasets are analyzed to show the fitting power of the new model compared to other appropriate models.

The transmuted family of distributions has been receiving increased attention over the last few years. For a baselineGdistribution, we derive a simple representation for the transmuted-Gfamily density function as a linear mixture of theGand exponentiated-Gdensities. We investigate the asymptotes and shapes and obtain explicit expressions for the ordinary and incomplete moments, quantile and generating functions, mean deviations, Rényi and Shannon entropies, and order statistics and their moments. We estimate the model parameters of the family by the method of maximum likelihood. We prove empirically the flexibility of the proposed model by means of an application to a real data set.

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.

Abstract We study some mathematical properties of a new generator of continuous distributions called the Odd Nadarajah-Haghighi (ONH) family. In particular, three special models in this family are investigated, namely the ONH gamma, beta and Weibull distributions. The family density function is given as a linear combination of exponentiated densities. Further, we propose a bivariate extension and various characterization results of the new family. We determine the maximum likelihood estimates of ONH parameters for complete and censored data. We provide a simulation study to verify the precision of these estimates. We illustrate the performance of the new family by means of a real data set.

We propose a new family of distributions called the exponentiated Kumaraswamy-G class with three extra positive parameters, which generalizes the Cordeiro and de Castro's family. Some special distributions in the new class are discussed. We derive some mathematical properties of the proposed class including explicit expressions for the quantile function, ordinary and incomplete moments, generating function, mean deviations, reliability, Rényi entropy and Shannon entropy. The method of maximum likelihood is used to fit the distributions in the proposed class. Simulations are performed in order to assess the asymptotic behavior of the maximum likelihood estimates. We illustrate its potentiality with applications to two real data sets which show that the extended Weibull model in the new class provides a better fit than other generalized Weibull distributions.

The rT - X family of distributions induced by V which have been introduced in [1] is further explored in this paper. In particular, we have obtained some basic mathematical properties of this new family. The simulation study shows the method of maximum likelihood is adequate in estimating the unknown parameters in sub-models of this new class of statistical distributions. Further, the application shows that sub-models of this new family of distributions are useful in material science engineering and related disciplines that call for modeling and forecasting of related data sets. Finally, inspired by the Ampadu-G family of distributions [2], we propose a new class of distributions that have never appeared in the literature, and ask the reader to investigate some properties and applications of this new class of distributions.
