In this article, a new four-parameter lifetime model called the exponentiated generalized inverted Gompertz distribution is studied and proposed. The newly proposed distribution is able to model the lifetimes with upside-down bathtub-shaped hazard rates and is suitable for describing the negative and positive skewness. A detailed description of some various properties of this model, including the reliability function, hazard rate function, quantile function, and median, mode, moments, moment generating function, entropies, kurtosis, and skewness, mean waiting lifetime, and others are presented. The parameters of the studied model are appreciated using four various estimation methods, the maximum likelihood, least squares, weighted least squares, and Cramér-von Mises methods. A simulation study is carried out to examine the performance of the new model estimators based on the four estimation methods using the mean squared errors (MSEs) and the bias estimates. The flexibility of the proposed model is clarified by studying four different engineering applications to symmetric and asymmetric data, and it is found that this model is more flexible and works quite well for modeling these data.

This paper aims to find a statistical model for the COVID-19 spread in the United Kingdom and Canada. We used an efficient and superior model for fitting the COVID 19 mortality rates in these countries by specifying an optimal statistical model. A new lifetime distribution with two-parameter is introduced by a combination of inverted Topp-Leone distribution and modified Kies family to produce the modified Kies inverted Topp-Leone (MKITL) distribution, which covers a lot of application that both the traditional inverted Topp-Leone and the modified Kies provide poor fitting for them. This new distribution has many valuable properties as simple linear representation, hazard rate function, and moment function. We made several methods of estimations as maximum likelihood estimation, least squares estimators, weighted least-squares estimators, maximum product spacing, Crame´r-von Mises estimators, and Anderson-Darling estimators methods are applied to estimate the unknown parameters of MKITL distribution. A numerical result of the Monte Carlo simulation is obtained to assess the use of estimation methods. also, we applied different data sets to the new distribution to assess its performance in modeling data.

In this study, a new flexible lifetime model called Burr XII moment exponential (BXII-ME) distribution is introduced. We derive some of its mathematical properties including the ordinary moments, conditional moments, reliability measures and characterizations. We employ different estimation methods such as the maximum likelihood, maximum product spacings, least squares, weighted least squares, Cramer-von Mises and Anderson-Darling methods for estimating the model parameters. We perform simulation studies on the basis of the graphical results to see the performance of the above estimators of the BXII-ME distribution. We verify the potentiality of the BXII-ME model via monthly actual taxes revenue and fatigue life applications.

In this paper, we study a new flexible three-parameter exponential distribution called the extended odd Weibull exponential distribution, which can have constant, decreasing, increasing, bathtub, upside-down bathtub and reversed-J shaped hazard rates, and right-skewed, left-skewed, symmetrical, and reversed-J shaped densities. Some mathematical properties of the proposed distribution are derived. The model parameters are estimated via eight frequentist estimation methods called, the maximum likelihood estimators, least squares and weighted least-squares estimators, maximum product of spacing estimators, Cramér-von Mises estimators, percentiles estimators, and Anderson-Darling and right-tail Anderson-Darling estimators. Extensive simulations are conducted to compare the performance of these estimation methods for small and large samples. Four practical data sets from the fields of medicine, engineering, and reliability are analyzed, proving the usefulness and flexibility of the proposed distribution.

This article presents a comprehensive study of an odd Lindley-Gompertz distribution which has already been proposed in the literature but without any properties. The present study unlike the previous one has considered the derivation of several properties of the odd Lindley-Gompertz distribution with their graphical representations and discussions which has not been done in the first proposition of the distribution.  The study looks at properties such as survival (or reliability) function, the hazard function, the cumulative hazard function, the reverse hazard function, the odds function, quantile function, moments, moment generating function, characteristic function, cumulant generating function, distribution of order statistics and maximum likelihood estimation of the distribution’s parameters none of which was treated by the previous author of the model. An illustration to evaluate the goodness-of-fit of the odd Lindley-Gompertz distribution has also been done using two real life datasets and the results show that the model fits the datasets better than the five other distributions considered in this present study.

In this paper, we studied the problem of estimating the odd exponentiated half-logistic exponential (OEHLE) parameters using several frequentist estimation methods. Parameter estimation provides a guideline for choosing the best method of estimation for the model parameters, which would be very important for reliability engineers and applied statisticians. We considered eight estimation methods, called maximum likelihood, maximum product of spacing, least squares, Cramér–von Mises, weighted least squares, percentiles, Anderson–Darling, and right-tail Anderson–Darling for estimating its parameters. The finite sample properties of the parameter estimates are discussed using Monte Carlo simulations. In order to obtain the ordering performance of these estimators, we considered the partial and overall ranks of different estimation methods for all parameter combinations. The results illustrate that all classical estimators perform very well and their performance ordering, based on overall ranks, from best to worst, is the maximum product of spacing, maximum likelihood, Anderson–Darling, percentiles, weighted least squares, least squares, right-tail Anderson–Darling, and Cramér–von-Mises estimators for all the studied cases. Finally, the practical importance of the OEHLE model was illustrated by analysing a real data set, proving that the OEHLE distribution can perform better than some well known existing extensions of the exponential distribution.

This paper proposes the new three-parameter type I half-logistic inverse Weibull (TIHLIW) distribution which generalizes the inverse Weibull model. The density function of the TIHLIW can be expressed as a linear combination of the inverse Weibull densities. Some mathematical quantities of the proposed TIHLIW model are derived. Four estimation methods, namely, the maximum likelihood, least squares, weighted least squares, and Cramér–von Mises methods, are utilized to estimate the TIHLIW parameters. Simulation results are presented to assess the performance of the proposed estimation methods. The importance of the TIHLIW model is studied via a real data application.

The present paper proposes a new distribution called the inverse power logistic exponential distribution that extends the inverse Weibull, inverse logistic exponential, inverse Rayleigh, and inverse exponential distributions. The proposed model accommodates symmetrical, right-skewed, left-skewed, reversed-J-shaped, and J-shaped densities and increasing, unimodal, decreasing, reversed-J-shaped, and J-shaped hazard rates. We derive some mathematical properties of the proposed model. The model parameters were estimated using five estimation methods including the maximum likelihood, Anderson–Darling, least-squares, Cramér–von Mises, and weighted least-squares estimation methods. The performance of these estimation methods was assessed by a detailed simulation study. Furthermore, the flexibility of the introduced model was studied using an insurance real dataset, showing that the proposed model can be used to fit the insurance data as compared with twelve competing models.
