A new three-parameter size-biased Poisson-Lindley distribution which includes several one parameter and two-parameter size-biased distributions including size-biased geometric distribution (SBGD), size-biased negative binomial distribution (SBNBD), size-biased Poisson-Lindley distribution (SBPLD), size-biased Poisson-Shanker distribution (SBPSD), size-biased two-parameter Poisson-Lindley distribution-1 (SBTPPLD-1), size-biased two-parameter Poisson-Lindley distribution-2(SBTPPLD-2), size-biased quasi Poisson-Lindley distribution (SBQPLD) and size-biased new quasi Poisson-Lindley distribution (SBNQPLD) for particular cases of parameters has been proposed. Its various statistical properties based on moments including coefficient of variation, skewness, kurtosis and index of dispersion have been studied. Maximum likelihood estimation has been discussed for estimating the parameters of the distribution. Goodness of fit of the proposed distribution has been discussed.

In this paper the nature and behavior of its coefficient of variation, skewness, kurtosis and index of dispersion of Poisson- weighted Lindley distribution (P-WLD), a Poisson mixture of weighted Lindley distribution, have been proposed and the nature and behavior have been explained graphically. Maximum likelihood estimation has been discussed to estimate its parameters. Applications of the proposed distribution have been discussed and its goodness of fit has been compared with Poisson distribution (PD), Poisson-Lindley distribution (PLD), negative binomial distribution (NBD) and generalized Poisson-Lindley distribution (GPLD).

A generalization of Poisson Sujatha distribution (AGPSD), which includes Poisson-Lindley distribution (PLD) and Poisson-Sujatha distribution (PSD) as particular cases, has been proposed and studied. Its moments and moments-based measures including coefficient of variation, skewness, kurtosis and index of dispersion have been obtained and their behaviors have been discussed. The estimation of its parameters has been discussed with maximum likelihood estimation. The applications of the proposed distribution has been explained through two examples of count data from ecology and the goodness of fit of the distribution has been compared with Poisson distribution, PLD and PSD.

A zero-truncated discrete two-parameter Poisson-Lindley distribution (ZTDTPPLD), which includes zero-truncated Poisson-Lindley distribution (ZTPLD) as a particular case, has been introduced. The proposed distribution has been obtained by compounding size-biased Poisson distribution (SBPD) with a continuous distribution. Its raw moments and central moments have been given. The coefficients of variation, skewness, kurtosis, and index of dispersion have been obtained and their nature and behavior have been studied graphically. Maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) has been discussed for estimating its parameters. The goodness of fit of ZTDTPPLD has been discussed with some data sets and the fit shows satisfactory over zero – truncated Poisson distribution (ZTPD) and ZTPLD. Journal of Institute of Science and TechnologyVolume 22, Issue 2, January 2018, Page: 76-85

In this paper, a new two-parameter Lindley distribution has been proposed. Descriptive statistical properties along with order statistics, Fisher information matrix and confidence interval of the proposed distribution have been discussed. Parameters are estimated by the method of Maximum Likelihood estimation. A real lifetime data has been presented to test the goodness of fit of the proposed distribution over other one parameter and two –parameter Lindley family of distributions.

In this paper, generalized size-biased Poisson-Lindley distribution (GSBPLD) which includes size-biased Poisson-Lindley distribution (SBPLD) as particular case, has been proposed and studied. Its moments based measures including coefficients of variation, skewness, kurtosis, and index of dispersion have been derived and their nature and behavior have been discussed with varying values of the parameters. The estimation of its parameter has been discussed using maximum likelihood estimation. Some applications of the proposed distribution have been explained through datasets relating to size distribution of freely-forming and the goodness of fit has been found satisfactory over SBPLD and size-biased Poisson distribution (SBPD).

AbstractTo which extent do happiness correlates contribute to the stability of life satisfaction? Which method is appropriate to provide a conclusive answer to this question? Based on life satisfaction data of the German SOEP, we show that by Negative Binomial quasi-maximum likelihood estimation statements can be made as to how far correlates of happiness contribute to the stabilisation of life satisfaction. The results show that happiness correlates which are generally associated with a positive change in life satisfaction, also stabilise life satisfaction and destabilise dissatisfaction with life. In such as they lower the probability of leaving positive states of life satisfaction and increase the probability of leaving dissatisfied states. This in particular applies to regular exercise, volunteering and living in a marriage. We further conclude that both patterns in response behaviour and the quality of the measurement instrument, the life satisfaction scale, have a significant effect on the variation and stability of reported life satisfaction.

AbstractA new generalized class of Lindley distribution is introduced in this paper. This new class is called the T-Lindley{Y} class of distributions, and it is generated by using the quantile functions of uniform, exponential, Weibull, log-logistic, logistic and Cauchy distributions. The statistical properties including the modes, moments and Shannon’s entropy are discussed. Three new generalized Lindley distributions are investigated in more details. For estimating the unknown parameters, the maximum likelihood estimation has been used and a simulation study was carried out. Lastly, the usefulness of this new proposed class in fitting lifetime data is illustrated using four different data sets. In the application section, the strength of members of the T-Lindley{Y} class in modeling both unimodal as well as bimodal data sets is presented. A member of the T-Lindley{Y} class of distributions outperformed other known distributions in modeling unimodal and bimodal lifetime data sets.
