In this article, we dened a new four-parameter model called Marshall-Olkin extended power Lomax distribution and studied its properties. Limiting distributions of sample maxima and sample minima are derived. The reliability of a system when both stress and strength follows the new distribution is discussed and associated characteristics are computed for simulated data. Finally, utilizing maximum likelihood estimation, the goodness of the distribution is tested for real data.

In this work, we introduce a new Burr XII power series class of distributions, which is obtained by compounding exponentiated Burr XII and power series distributions and has a strong physical motivation. The new distribution contains several important lifetime models. We derive explicit expressions for the ordinary and incomplete moments and generating functions. We discuss the maximum likelihood estimation of the model parameters. The maximum likelihood estimation procedure is presented. We assess the performance of the maximum likelihood estimators in terms of biases, standard deviations, and mean square of errors by means of two simulation studies. The usefulness of the new model is illustrated by means of three real data sets. The new proposed models provide consistently better fits than other competitive models for these data sets.


In this article, we have introduced a new distribution based on type I half logistic-G family and exponential extension as a base distribution known as Half Logistic Exponential Extension (HLEE) distribution. The statistical properties of this model are also explored, such as the behavior of probability density, hazard rate, and quantile functions are investigated. The Maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) method is used to estimate model parameters. For the potentiality of the proposed model we have compared the goodness of fit with some others models. We have proven the importance and flexibility of the new distribution in modeling with real data applications empirically.

Fitting of the exponential modified Gaussian distribution to model reaction times and drawing conclusions from its estimated parameter values is one of the most popular method used in psychology. This paper aims to develop a Bayesian approach to estimate the parameters of the ex-Gaussian distribution. Since the chosen priors yield to posterior densities that are not of known form and that they are not always log-concave, we suggest to use the adaptive rejection Metropolis sampling method. Applications on simulated data and on real data are provided to compare this method to the standard maximum likelihood estimation method as well as the quantile maximum likelihood estimation. Results shows the effectiveness of the proposed Bayesian method by computing the root mean square error of the estimated parameters using the three methods.

A new truncated distribution, called the truncated power Lomax (TPL) distribution, is proposed. This is a truncated version of the power Lomax distribution. The TPL distribution has increasing and decreasing shapes of the hazard function. Some statistical properties, such as moments, survival, hazard, and quantile functions, are discussed. The maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) is constructed for estimating the unknown parameters of the TPL distribution. Moreover, the distribution has been fitted with real data sets to illustrate the usefulness of the proposed distribution. From the results of the example applications, the TPL distribution provides a consistently better fit than the other distributions, i.e., power Lomax and Lomax.

Abstract This article studies the properties of the Topp–Leone linear exponential distribution. The parameters of the new model are estimated using maximum likelihood estimation, and simulation studies are performed to examine the finite sample properties of the parameters. An application of the model is demonstrated using a real data set. Finally, a bivariate extension of the model is proposed.

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.

In this paper, a cubic transformation exponential Weibull distribution is proposed by using the family of cubic transformation distributions introduced by Rahman et al.The reasoning process of the proposed cubic transformation exponential Weibull distribution is discussed in detail, and its statistical properties and parameter estimation are also discussed.Using real data, the maximum likelihood estimation is used to simulate. Through the comparison of fitting results, it is concluded that the cubic transformation exponential Weibull distribution proposed in this paper has stronger applicability.

In this paper, we investigate a new model based on Burr X and Fréchet distribution forextreme values and derive some of its properties. Maximum likelihood estimation alongwith asymptotic confidence intervals is considered for estimating the parameters of thedistribution. We demonstrate empirically the flexibility of the distribution in modelingvarious types of real data. Furthermore, we also provide Bayes estimators and highestposterior density intervals of the parameters of the distribution using Markov ChainMonte Carlo (MCMC) methods.

A new three-parameter life parametric model called the Marshall-Olkin generalized Weibull is defined and studied. Relevant properties are mathematically derived and analyzed. The new density exhibits various important symmetric and asymmetric shapes with different useful kurtosis. The new failure rate can be “constant”, “upside down-constant (reversed U-HRF-constant)”, “increasing then constant”, “monotonically increasing”, “J-HRF” and “monotonically decreasing”. The method of maximum likelihood is employed to estimate the unknown parameters. A graphical simulation is performed to assess the performance of the maximum likelihood estimation. We checked and proved empirically the importance, applicability and flexibility of the new Weibull model in modeling various symmetric and asymmetric types of data. The new distribution has a high ability to model different symmetric and asymmetric types of data.

AbstractLinkage disequilibrium (LD) estimates are often calculated genome-wide for use in many tasks, such as SNP pruning and LD decay estimation. However, in the presence of genotype uncertainty, naive approaches to calculating LD have extreme attenuation biases, incorrectly suggesting that SNPs are less dependent than in reality. These biases are particularly strong in polyploid organisms, which often exhibit greater levels of genotype uncertainty than diploids. A principled approach using maximum likelihood estimation with genotype likelihoods can reduce this bias, but is prohibitively slow for genome-wide applications. Here, we present scalable moment-based adjustments to LD estimates based on the marginal posterior distributions of the genotypes. We demonstrate, on both simulated and real data, that these moment-based estimators are as accurate as maximum likelihood estimators, and are almost as fast as naive approaches based only on posterior mean genotypes. This opens up bias-corrected LD estimation to genome-wide applications. Additionally, we provide standard errors for these moment-based estimators. All methods are implemented in the ldsep package on the Comprehensive R Archive Network https://cran.r-project.org/package=ldsep.
