We obtain explicit expressions for single and product moments of the order statistics of an omega distribution. We also discuss seven methods to estimate the omega parameters. Various simulation results are performed to compare the performance of the proposed estimators. Furthermore, the maximum likelihood method is adopted to estimate the omega parameters under the type II censoring scheme. The usefulness of the omega distribution is proven using a real data set.

A new generalization of the Frechet distribution called Lehmann Type II Frechet Poisson distribution is defined and studied. Various structural mathematical properties of the proposed model including ordinary moments, incomplete moments, generating functions, order statistics, Renyi entropy, stochastic ordering, Bonferroni and Lorenz curve, mean and median deviation, stress-strength parameter are investigated. The maximum likelihood method is used to estimate the model parameters. We examine the performance of the maximum likelihood method by means of a numerical simulation study. The new distribution is applied for modeling three real data sets to illustrate empirically its flexibility and tractability in modeling life time data.

In this paper, the Weibull extension distribution parameters are estimated under a progressive type-II censoring scheme with random removal. The parameters of the model are estimated using the maximum likelihood method, maximum product spacing, and Bayesian estimation methods. In classical estimation (maximum likelihood method and maximum product spacing), we did use the Newton–Raphson algorithm. The Bayesian estimation is done using the Metropolis–Hastings algorithm based on the square error loss function. The proposed estimation methods are compared using Monte Carlo simulations under a progressive type-II censoring scheme. An empirical study using a real data set of transformer insulation and a simulation study is performed to validate the introduced methods of inference. Based on the result of our study, it can be concluded that the Bayesian method outperforms the maximum likelihood and maximum product-spacing methods for estimating the Weibull extension parameters under a progressive type-II censoring scheme in both simulation and empirical studies.


In this paper, we have defined a new two-parameter new Lindley half Cauchy (NLHC) distribution using Lindley-G family of distribution which accommodates increasing, decreasing and a variety of monotone failure rates. The statistical properties of the proposed distribution such as probability density function, cumulative distribution function, quantile, the measure of skewness and kurtosis are presented. We have briefly described the three well-known estimation methods namely maximum likelihood estimators (MLE), least-square (LSE) and Cramer-Von-Mises (CVM) methods. All the computations are performed in R software. By using the maximum likelihood method, we have constructed the asymptotic confidence interval for the model parameters. We verify empirically the potentiality of the new distribution in modeling a real data set.

A flexible lifetime distribution with increasing, decreasing, inverted bathtub and modified bathtub hazard rate called Modified Burr XII-Inverse Weibull (MBXII-IW) is introduced and studied. The density function of MBXII-IW is exponential, left-skewed, right-skewed and symmetrical shaped.  Descriptive measures on the basis of quantiles, moments, order statistics and reliability measures are theoretically established. The MBXII-IW distribution is characterized via different techniques. Parameters of MBXII-IW distribution are estimated using maximum likelihood method. The simulation study is performed to illustrate the performance of the maximum likelihood estimates (MLEs). The potentiality of MBXII-IW distribution is demonstrated by its application to real data sets: serum-reversal times and quarterly earnings.

In order to find a counting distribution that can handle the condition when the data has no zero-count. Distribution named Zero-truncated Poisson-Lindley distribution is developed. It can handle the condition when the data has no zero-count both in over-dispersion and under-dispersion. In this paper, characteristics of Zero-truncated Poisson-Lindley distribution are obtained and estimate distribution parameters using the maximum likelihood method. Then, the application of the model to real data is given.

The need to develop generalizations of existing statistical distributions to make them more flexible in modeling real data sets is vital in parametric statistical modeling and inference. Thus, this study develops a new class of distributions called the extended odd Fréchet family of distributions for modifying existing standard distributions. Two special models named the extended odd Fréchet Nadarajah-Haghighi and extended odd Fréchet Weibull distributions are proposed using the developed family. The densities and the hazard rate functions of the two special distributions exhibit different kinds of monotonic and nonmonotonic shapes. The maximum likelihood method is used to develop estimators for the parameters of the new class of distributions. The application of the special distributions is illustrated by means of a real data set. The results revealed that the special distributions developed from the new family can provide reasonable parametric fit to the given data set compared to other existing distributions.

A new three-parameter compounded extended-exponential distribution “Poisson Nadarajah–Haghighi” is introduced and studied, which is quite flexible and can be used effectively in modeling survival data. It can have increasing, decreasing, upside-down bathtub and bathtub-shaped failure rate. A comprehensive account of the mathematical properties of the model is presented. We discuss maximum likelihood estimation for complete and censored data. The suitability of the maximum likelihood method to estimate its parameters is assessed by a Monte Carlo simulation study. Four empirical illustrations of the new model are presented to real data and the results are quite satisfactory.

In this article, we introduced a new extension of the binomial-exponential 2 distribution. We discussed some of its structural mathematical properties. A simple type Copula-based construction is also presented to construct the bivariate- and multivariate-type distributions. We estimated the model parameters via the maximum likelihood method. Finally, we illustrated the importance of the new model by the study of two real data applications to show the flexibility and potentiality of the new model in modeling skewed and symmetric data sets.

This paper deals with the estimation procedure for inverse Weibull distribution under progressive type-II censored samples when removals follow Beta-binomial probability law. To estimate the unknown parameters, the maximum likelihood and Bayes estimators are obtained under progressive censoring scheme mentioned above. Bayes estimates are obtained using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) technique considering square error loss function and compared with the corresponding MLE's. Further, the expected total time on test is obtained under considered censoring scheme.  Finally, a real data set has been analysed to check the validity of the study.

In this paper, we present and study a new four-parameter lifetime distribution obtained by the combination of the so-called type II Topp–Leone-G and transmuted-G families and the inverted Kumaraswamy distribution. By construction, the new distribution enjoys nice flexible properties and covers some well-known distributions which have already proven themselves in statistical applications, including some extensions of the Bur XII distribution. We first present the main functions related to the new distribution, with discussions on their shapes. In particular, we show that the related probability density function is left, right skewed, near symmetrical and reverse J shaped, with a notable difference regarding the right tailed, illustrating the flexibility of the distribution. Then, the related model is displayed, with the estimation of the parameters by the maximum likelihood method and the consideration of two practical data sets. We show that the proposed model is the best one in terms of standard model selection criteria, including Akaike information and Bayesian information criteria, and goodness of fit tests against three well-established competitors. Then, for the new model, the theoretical background on the maximum likelihood method is given, with numerical guaranties of the efficiency of the estimates obtained via a simulation study. Finally, the main mathematical properties of the new distribution are discussed, including asymptotic results, quantile function, Bowley skewness and Moors kurtosis, mixture representations for the probability density and cumulative density functions, ordinary moments, incomplete moments, probability weighted moments, stress-strength reliability and order statistics.
