In this article, Burr III distribution is proposed with a significantly improved functional form. This new modification has enhanced the flexibility of the classical distribution with the ability to model all shapes of hazard rate function including increasing, decreasing, bathtub, upside-down bathtub, and nearly constant. Some of its elementary properties, such as rth moments, sth incomplete moments, moment generating function, skewness, kurtosis, mode, ith order statistics, and stochastic ordering, are presented in a clear and concise manner. The well-established technique of maximum likelihood is employed to estimate model parameters. Middle-censoring is considered as a modern general scheme of censoring. The efficacy of the proposed model is asserted through three applications consisting of complete and censored samples.

We study a new distribution called the Marshall-Olkin Power Lomax distribution. A comprehensive account of its mathematical properties including explicit expressions for the ordinary moments, moment generating function, order statistics, Renyi entropy, and probability weighted moments are derived. The model parameters are estimated by the method of maximum likelihood. Monte Carlo simulation study is carried out to estimate the parameters and the performance of the estimates is judged via the average biases and mean squared error values. The usefulness of the proposed model is illustrated via real-life data set.

Unit distributions are commonly used in probability and statistics to describe useful quantities with values between 0 and 1, such as proportions, probabilities, and percentages. Some unit distributions are defined in a natural analytical manner, and the others are derived through the transformation of an existing distribution defined in a greater domain. In this article, we introduce the unit gamma/Gompertz distribution, founded on the inverse-exponential scheme and the gamma/Gompertz distribution. The gamma/Gompertz distribution is known to be a very flexible three-parameter lifetime distribution, and we aim to transpose this flexibility to the unit interval. First, we check this aspect with the analytical behavior of the primary functions. It is shown that the probability density function can be increasing, decreasing, “increasing-decreasing” and “decreasing-increasing”, with pliant asymmetric properties. On the other hand, the hazard rate function has monotonically increasing, decreasing, or constant shapes. We complete the theoretical part with some propositions on stochastic ordering, moments, quantiles, and the reliability coefficient. Practically, to estimate the model parameters from unit data, the maximum likelihood method is used. We present some simulation results to evaluate this method. Two applications using real data sets, one on trade shares and the other on flood levels, demonstrate the importance of the new model when compared to other unit models.

In this article, we introduce a new three-parameter distribution called the extended inverse-Gompertz (EIGo) distribution. The implementation of three parameters provides a good reconstruction for some applications. The EIGo distribution can be seen as an extension of the inverted exponential, inverse Gompertz, and generalized inverted exponential distributions. Its failure rate function has an upside-down bathtub shape. Various statistical and reliability properties of the EIGo distribution are discussed. The model parameters are estimated by the maximum-likelihood and Bayesian methods under Type-II censored samples, where the parameters are explained using gamma priors. The performance of the proposed approaches is examined using simulation results. Finally, two real-life engineering data sets are analyzed to illustrate the applicability of the EIGo distribution, showing that it provides better fits than competing inverted models such as inverse-Gompertz, inverse-Weibull, inverse-gamma, generalized inverse-Weibull, exponentiated inverted-Weibull, generalized inverted half-logistic, inverted-Kumaraswamy, inverted Nadarajah–Haghighi, and alpha-power inverse-Weibull distributions.

In this paper, a new lifetime distribution called the Inverse Sushila Distribution (ISD) is proposed. Its fundamental properties like the density function, distribution function, hazard rate function, survival function, cumulative hazard rate function, order statistics, moments, moments generating function, maximum likelihood estimation, quantiles function, Rényi entropy and stochastic ordering are obtained. The distribution offers more flexibility in modelling upside-down bathtub lifetime data. The proposed model is applied to a lifetime data and its performance is compared with some other related distributions.

This paper presents the details of a proposed continuous model for the minimum Gumbel Burr distribution which is based on four different parameters. The model is obtained by compounding the Gumbel type-II and Burr-XII distributions. Basic mathematical properties of the new distribution were studied including the quantile function, ordinary and incomplete moments, moment generating function, order statistics, Rényi entropy, stress-strength model and stochastic ordering. The parameters of the proposed distribution are estimated using the maximum likelihood method. A Monte Carlo simulation was presented to examine the behaviour of the parameter estimates. The flexibility of the proposed model was assessed by means of three applications.

AbstractA generalization of the Lindley distribution namely, Lindley negative-binomial distribution, is introduced. The Lindley and the exponentiated Lindley distributions are considered as sub-models of the proposed distribution. The proposed model has flexible density and hazard rate functions. The density function can be decreasing, right-skewed, left-skewed and approximately symmetric. The hazard rate function possesses various shapes including increasing, decreasing and bathtub. Furthermore, the survival and hazard rate functions have closed form representations which make this model tractable for censored data analysis. Some general properties of the proposed model are studied such as ordinary and incomplete moments, moment generating function, mean deviations, Lorenz and Bonferroni curve. The maximum likelihood and the Bayesian estimation methods are utilized to estimate the model parameters. In addition, a small simulation study is conducted in order to evaluate the performance of the estimation methods. Two real data sets are used to illustrate the applicability of the proposed model.

A new four-parameter lifetime distribution (called the Topp Leone Weibull-Lomax distribution) is proposed in this paper. Different mathematical properties of the proposed distribution were studied which include quantile function, ordinary and incomplete moments, probability weighted moment, conditional moments, order statistics, stochastic ordering, and stress-strength reliability parameter. The regression model and the residual analysis for the proposed model were also carried out. The model parameters were estimated by using the maximum likelihood criterion and the behaviour of these estimated parameters were examined by conducting a simulation study. The importance and flexibility of the proposed distribution have been proved empirically by using four separate data sets.

This paper proposed a new probability distribution, namely, the half-logistic xgamma (HLXG) distribution. Various statistical properties, such as, moments, incomplete moments, mean residual life, and stochastic ordering of the proposed distribution, are discussed. Parameter estimation of the half-logistic xgamma distribution is approached by the maximum likelihood method based on complete and censored samples. Asymptotic confidence intervals of model parameters are provided. A simulation study is conducted to illustrate the theoretical results. Moreover, the model parameters of the HLXG distribution are estimated by using the maximum likelihood, least square, maximum product spacing, percentile, and Cramer–von Mises (CVM) methods. Superiority of the new model over some existing distributions is illustrated through three real data sets.

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.
