The bivariate distributions are useful in simultaneous modeling of two random variables. These distributions provide a way of modeling complex joint phenomenon. In this article, a new bivariate distribution is proposed which is known as the bivariate transmuted Burr (BTB) distribution. This new bivariate distribution is extension of the univariate transmuted Burr (TB) distribution to two variables. The proposed  BTB distribution is explored in detail and the marginal and conditional distributions for the distribution are obtained. Joint and conditional moments alongside hazard rate functions are obtained. The maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) for the parameters of the BTB distribution is also done. Finally, real data application of the BTB distribution is given. It is observed that the proposed BTB distribution is a suitable fit for the data used.

In this paper, we present an extension of the truncated positive normal (TPN) distribution to model positive data with a high kurtosis. The new model is defined as the quotient between two random variables: the TPN distribution (numerator) and the power of a standard uniform distribution (denominator). The resulting model has greater kurtosis than the TPN distribution. We studied some properties of the distribution, such as moments, asymmetry, and kurtosis. Parameter estimation is based on the moments method, and maximum likelihood estimation uses the expectation-maximization algorithm. We performed some simulation studies to assess the recovery parameters and illustrate the model with a real data application related to body weight. The computational implementation of this work was included in the tpn package of the R software.

The new mixture model of the two components of the inverse Weibull and inverse Burr distributions (MIWIBD) is proposed. First, the properties of the investigated mixture model are introduced and the behaviors of the probability density functions and hazard rate functions are displayed. Then, the estimates of the five-dimensional vector of parameters by using the classical method such as the maximum likelihood estimation (MLEs) and the approximation method by using Lindley’s approximation are obtained. Finally, a real data set for the proposed mixture model is applied to illustrate the proposed mixture model.

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 paper, we talk about a mixture of one-parameter Lindley and inverse Weibull distributions (MLIWD). First, We introduce and discuss the MLIWD. Then, we study the main statistical properties of the proposed mixture and provide some graphs of both the density and the associated hazard rate functions. After that, we estimate the unknown parameters of the proposed mixture via two estimation methods, namely, the generalized method of moments and maximum likelihood. In addition, we compare the estimation methods via some simulation studies to determine the efficacy of the two estimation methods. Finally, we evaluate the performance and behavior of the proposed mixture with different numerical examples and real data application in survival analysis.

AbstractThis paper is concerned with presenting the Exponential-Lognormal (ELN) regression model as a competitive alternative to the Pareto, or Exponential-Inverse Gamma, regression model that has been used in a wide range of areas, including insurance ratemaking. This is the first time that the ELN regression model is used in a statistical or actuarial context. The main contribution of the study is that we illustrate how maximum likelihood estimation of the ELN regression model, which does not have a density in closed form, can be accomplished relatively easily via an Expectation-Maximisation type algorithm. A real data application based on motor insurance data is examined in order to emphasise the versatility of the proposed algorithm. Finally, assuming that the number of claims is distributed according to the classic Negative Binomial and Poisson-Inverse Gaussian regression models, both the a priori and a posteriori, or Bonus–Malus, premium rates resulting from the ELN regression model are calculated via the net premium principle and compared to those determined by the Pareto regression model that has been traditionally used for modelling claim sizes.

We introduce a four-parameter lifetime model with flexible hazard rate called the Burr XII gamma (BXIIG) distribution.  We derive the BXIIG distribution from (i) the T-X family technique and (ii) nexus between the exponential and gamma variables. The failure rate function for the BXIIG distribution is flexible as it can accommodate various shapes such as increasing, decreasing, decreasing-increasing, increasing-decreasing-increasing, bathtub and modified bathtub.  Its density function can take shapes such as exponential, J, reverse-J, left-skewed, right-skewed and symmetrical. To illustrate the importance of the BXIIG distribution, we establish various mathematical properties such as random number generator, ordinary moments, generating function, conditional moments, density functions of record values, reliability measures and characterizations.  We address the maximum likelihood estimation for the parameters. We estimate the adequacy of the estimators via a simulation study. We consider applications to two real data sets to prove empirically the potentiality of the proposed model.

Abstract In this article, we introduce some examples of cubic rank transmuted distributions proposed by Granzatto et al. (2017). The statistical aspects of the introduced distributions such as probability density functions, hazard rate functions and reliability functions are studied. The maximum likelihood estimation method is used in order to estimate the parameters of interest. Finally, real data examples are applied for the illustration of these distributions.

A new distribution called the Lindley-Burr XII (LBXII) distribution is proposed and studied. Some structural properties of the new distribution including moments, conditional moments, distribution of the order statistics and R´enyi entropy are derived. Maximum likelihood estimation technique is used to estimate the model parameters. A simulation study to examine the bias and mean square error of the maximum likelihood estimators is presented and applications to real data sets in order to illustrate the usefulness of the new distribution are given.

In this paper, bivariate compound exponentiated survival function of the Lomax distribution is constructed based on the technique considered by AL-Hussaini (2011). Some properties of the distribution are derived. Maximum likelihood estimation and prediction of the future observations are considered. Also, Bayesian estimation and prediction are studied under squared error loss function. The performance of the proposed bivariate distribution is examined using a simulation study. Finally, a real data set is analyzed under the proposed distribution to illustrate its flexibility for real-life application.

In this paper, we used the maximum likelihood estimation method to find the estimation values ​​for survival and hazard rate functions of the Exponential Rayleigh distribution based on a sample of the real data for lung cancer and stomach cancer obtained from the Iraqi Ministry of Health and Environment, Department of Medical City, Tumor Teaching Hospital, depending on patients' diagnosis records and number of days the patient remains in the hospital until his death.
