Abstract We obtained a new generalization of Lindley-Quasi Xgamma distribution by adding weight parameter to it through weighting technique and have shown the flexibility of proposed model. Expression for reliability measures, order statistics, Bonferroni curves & indices, Renyi entropy along with some other important properties are derived. Maximum likelihood estimation method is put to use for estimation of unknown parameters of proposed model. Simulation study for checking the performance of maximum likelihood estimates and for model comparison is carried out. Proposed model and its related models are fitted to real life data sets and goodness of fit measure Kolmogorov statistic & p-value, loss of information criteria’s AIC, BIC, AICC & HQIC are computed through R software to check the applicability of proposed model in real life. The significance of weight parameter is also tested by using likelihood ratio test for both randomly generated data as well as real life data.

In this paper, we propose a new lifetime distribution, namely the extended Burr XII distribution (using the technique as mentioned in Cordeiro et al. (2015)). We derive some basic properties of the new distribution and provide a Monte Carlo simulation study to evaluate the maximum likelihood estimates of model parameters. For illustrative purposes, two real life data sets have been considered as an application of the proposed model.

AbstractThe Kumaraswamy generalized family of distributions proposed by Cordeiro and de-Castro (2011), has received increased attention in modern distribution theory with 624 google citations, and more than 50 special models have been studied so far. We define another generator, and then propose a new Kumaraswamy generalized family of distributions by inducting this new generator. Some useful properties of the proposed family are obtained such as quantiles, linear representation of the density, moments and generating function. The method of maximum likelihood is used for estimating family parameters. The properties of a special model of the family, called new Kumaraswamy-Burr XII distribution, are reported. A simulation study is conducted to assess the performance of maximum likelihood estimates of the proposed model. Two real-life data sets are analyzed to illustrate the flexibility of proposed model.

A new lifetime model, with four positive parameters, called the Weibull Birnbaum-Saunders distribution is proposed. The proposed model extends the Birnbaum-Saunders distribution and provides great flexibility in modeling data in practice. Some mathematical properties of the new distribution are obtained including expansions for the cumulative and density functions, moments, generating function, mean deviations, order statistics and reliability. Estimation of the model parameters is carried out by the maximum likelihood estimation method. A simulation study is presented to show the performance of the maximum likelihood estimates of the model parameters. The flexibility of the new model is examined by applying it to two real data sets.

In this article an attempt is made to introduce a new extension of the Fréchet model called the Xgamma Fréchet model. Some of its properties are derived. The estimation of the parameters via different estimation methods are discussed. The performances of the proposed estimation methods are investigated through simulations as well as real life data sets.

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.

Special Cases

In this paper, a generalized modification of the Kumaraswamy distribution is proposed, and its distributional and characterizing properties are studied. This distribution is closed under scaling and exponentiation, and has some well-known distributions as special cases, such as the generalized uniform, triangular, beta, power function, Minimax, and some other Kumaraswamy related distributions. Moment generating function, Lorenz and Bonferroni curves, with its moments consisting of the mean, variance, moments about the origin, harmonic, incomplete, probability weighted, L, and trimmed L moments, are derived. The maximum likelihood estimation method is used for estimating its parameters and applied to six different simulated data sets of this distribution, in order to check the performance of the estimation method through the estimated parameters mean squares errors computed from the different simulated sample sizes. Finally, four real-life data sets are used to illustrate the usefulness and the flexibility of this distribution in application to real-life data.

In addition, the asymptotic behavior of the maximum likelihood estimators of the parameters of the distribution is examined by using simulated data sets.

Family Of Distributions

For bounded unit interval, we propose a new Kumaraswamy generalized (G) family of distributions from a new generator which could be an alternate to the Kumaraswamy-G family proposed earlier by Cordeiro and de-Castro in 2011. This new generator can also be used to develop alternate G-classes such as beta-G, McDonald-G, Topp-Leone-G, Marshall-Olkin-G and Transmuted-G for bounded unit interval. Some mathematical properties of this new family are obtained and maximum likelihood method is used for estimating the family parameters. We investigate the properties of one special model called a new Kumaraswamy-Weibull (NKwW) distribution. Parameter estimation is dealt and maximum likelihood estimators are assessed through simulation study. Two real life data sets are analyzed to illustrate the importance and flexibility of this distribution. In fact, this model outperforms some generalized Weibull models such as the Kumaraswamy-Weibull, McDonald-Weibull, beta-Weibull, exponentiated-generalized Weibull, gamma-Weibull, odd log-logistic-Weibull, Marshall-Olkin-Weibull, transmuted-Weibull, exponentiated-Weibull and Weibull distributions when applied to these data sets. The bivariate extension of the family is proposed and the estimation of parameters is given. The usefulness of the bivariate NKwW model is illustrated empirically by means of a real-life data set.

In this article, we are concerned with the E-Bayesian (the expectation of Bayesian estimate) method, the maximum likelihood and the Bayesian estimation methods of the shape parameter, and the reliability function of one-parameter Burr-X distribution. A hybrid generalized Type-II censored sample from one-parameter Burr-X distribution is considered. The Bayesian and E-Bayesian approaches are studied under squared error and LINEX loss functions by using the Markov chain Monte Carlo method. Confidence intervals for maximum likelihood estimates, as well as credible intervals for the E-Bayesian and Bayesian estimates, are constructed. Furthermore, an example of real-life data is presented for the sake of the illustration. Finally, the performance of the E-Bayesian estimation method is studied then compared with the performance of the Bayesian and maximum likelihood methods.
