This paper deals with a new generalization of the Weibull distribution. This distribution is called exponentiated exponentiated exponential-Weibull (EEE-W) distribution. Various structural properties of the new probabilistic model are considered, such as hazard rate function, moments, moment generating function, quantile function, skewness, kurtosis, Shannon entropy and Rényi entropy. The maximum likelihood estimates of its unknown parameters are obtained. Finally, areal data set is analyzed and it observed that the present distribution can provide a better fit than some other known distributions.

AbstractIn this paper, we defined and studied a new distribution called the odd exponentiated half-logistic Burr III distribution. Properties such as the linear representation of the probability density function (PDF) of the distribution, quantile function, ordinary and incomplete moments, moment generating function and distribution of the order statistic were derived. The PDF and hazard rate function were found to be capable of having various shapes, making the new distribution highly flexible. In particular, the hazard rate function can be nonincreasing, unimodal and nondecreasing. It can also have the bathtub shape among other non- monotone shapes. The maximum likelihood procedure was used to estimate the parameters of the new model. We gave two numerical examples to illustrate the usefulness and the ability of the distribution to provide better fits to a number of data sets than several distributions in existence.Keywords: Burr III distribution; maximum likelihood procedure; moments; odd exponentiated half-logistic-G family; order statistics. AbstrakPada artikel ini akan didefinisikan dan dipelajari mengenai distribusi baru yang disebut distribusi Burr III setengah logistik tereksponen ganjil.

Fungsi FKP dan fungsi tingkat hazard diperoleh memiliki bermacam-macam bentuk, membuat distribusi baru ini sangat fleksibel. Secara khusus, fungsi tingkat hazard dapat berupa fungsi taknaik, bermodus tunggal, bisa juga tidak turun. Selain itu, fungsi ini juga dapat berbentuk seperti bak mandi di antara bentuk-bentuk tak monoton lainnya. Prosedur kemungkinan maksimum digunakan untuk mengestimasi parameter model yang baru.

In this study, we proposed a new generalised transmuted inverse exponential distribution with three parameters and have transmuted inverse exponential and inverse exponential distributions as sub models. The hazard function of the distribution is nonmonotonic, unimodal and inverted bathtub shaped making it suitable for modelling lifetime data. We derived the moment, moment generating function, quantile function, maximum likelihood estimates of the parameters, Renyi entropy and order statistics of the distribution. A real life data set is used to illustrate the usefulness of the proposed model.

In this study, a new weighted version of the inverse Rayleigh distribution based on two different weight functions is introduced. Some statistical and reliability properties of the introduced distribution including the moments, moment generating function, entropy measures (i.e., Shannon and R´enyi) and survival and hazard rate functions are derived. The maximum likelihood estimators of the unknown parameters cannot be obtained in explicit forms. So, a numerical method has been required to compute maximum likelihood estimates. Finally, the daily mean wind speed data set has been analysed to show the usability of the new weighted inverse Rayleigh distribution.

We introduce the discrete distribution of a Wiener process range (DDWPR). Rather than finding some basic distributional properties including hazard rate function, moments, stress-strength parameter and order statistics of this distribution, this paper studies some basic properties of the truncated version of this distribution. The effectiveness of this distribution is established using a data set.

In this paper, a discrete analog of the beta-Weibull distribution is studied. This new distribution contains several discrete distributions as special sub-models. Some distributional and moment properties of the discrete beta-Weibull distribution as well as its order statistics are discussed. We will show that the hazard rate function of the new model can be increasing, decreasing, bathtub-shaped and upside-down bathtub. Estimation of the parameters is illustrated and the model with a real data set is also examined.

In this article, we introduce a new one-parameter model, which is named sine inverted exponential (SIE) distribution. The SIE distribution is a new extension of the inverse exponential (IE) distribution. The SIE distribution aims to provide the SIE model for data-fitting purposes. The SIE distribution is more flexible than the inverted exponential (IE) model, and it has many applications in physics, medicine, engineering, nanophysics, and nanoscience. The density function (PDFu) of SIE distribution can be unimodel shape and right skewed shape. The hazard rate function (HRFu) of SIE distribution can be J-shaped and increasing shaped. We investigated some fundamental statistical properties such as quantile function (QFu), moments (Mo), moment generating function (MGFu), incomplete moments (ICMo), conditional moments (CMo), and the SIE distribution parameters were estimated using the maximum likelihood (ML) method for estimation under censored samples (CS). Finally, the numerical results were investigated to evaluate the flexibility of the new model. The SIE distribution and the IE distribution are compared using two real datasets. The numerical results show the superiority of the SIE distribution.

In this article, we introduce a new probability distribution generator called the Lambert-F generator. For any continuous baseline distribution F, with positive support, the corresponding Lambert-F version is generated by using the new generator. The result is a new class of distributions with one extra parameter that generalizes the baseline distribution and whose quantile function can be expressed in closed form in terms of the Lambert W function. The hazard rate function of a Lambert-F distribution corresponds to a modification of the baseline hazard rate function, greatly increasing or decreasing the baseline hazard rate for earlier times. Herein, we study the main structural properties of the new class of distributions. Special attention is given to two particular cases that can be understood as two-parameter extensions of the well-known exponential and Rayleigh distributions. We discuss parameter estimation for the proposed models considering the moments and maximum likelihood methods. Finally, two applications were developed to illustrate the usefulness of the proposed distributions in the analysis of data from different real settings.

We introduce and establish some properties of a generalized form of the beta function. Corresponding generalized incomplete beta functions are also defined. Moreover, we define a new probability density function (pdf) involving this new generalized beta function. Some basic functions associated with the pdf, such as moment generating function, mean residue function, and hazard rate function are derived. Some special cases are mentioned. Some figures for pdf, hazard rate function, and mean residue life function are given. These figures reflect the role of shape and scale parameters.

AbstractThis article introduces a new lifetime distribution called the transmuted Erlang-truncated exponential (TETE) distribution. This new distribution generalizes the two parameter Erlang-truncated exponential (ETE) distribution. Closed form expressions for some of its distributional and reliability properties are provided. The method of maximum likelihood estimation was proposed for estimating the parameters of the TETE distribution. The hazard rate function of the TETE distribution can be constant, increasing or decreasing depending on the value of the transmutation parameter

This study proposes new distribution which is generated from exponentiated-exponential-X family of distribution. It is explored various shape and behavior of the observed distribution through probability density plot, hazard rate function and quantile function.
