Several mathematical properties of this new distribution are studied. The maximum likelihood estimation method was used in estimating the parameters of the proposed distribution. Finally, an application of the proposed distribution to a real lifetime data set is presented and its fit was compared with the fit obtained by some comparable lifetime distributions.

This article examines the flexibility of the Zubair-G family of distribution using the Dagum distribution. The proposed distribution is called the Zubair-Dagum distribution. The various mathematical properties of this distribution such as the Quantile function, Moments, Moment generating function, Reliability analysis, Entropy and Order statistics were obtained. The parameter estimates of the proposed distribution were also derived and estimated using the maximum likelihood estimation method. The new distribution is right skewed and has various bathtub and monotonically decreasing shapes. Our numerical illustrations using two real-life datasets substantiate the applicability, flexibility and superiority of the proposed distribution over competing distributions.

This paper presents a new generalization of the extended Bur II distribution. We redefined the Bur II distribution using the Alpha Power Transformation (APT) to obtain a new distribution called the Alpha Power Transformed Extended Bur II distribution. We derived several mathematical properties for the new model which includes moments, moment generating function, order statistics, entropy etc. and used a maximum likelihood estimation method to obtain the parameters of the distribution. Two real-world data sets were used for applications in order to illustrate the usefulness of the new distribution.

We introduce the Kumaraswamy alpha power-G (KAP-G) family which extends the alpha power family (Mahdavi and Kundu, 2017) and some other families. We consider the Weibull as baseline for the KAP family and generate Kumaraswamy alpha power Weibull distribution which has right-skewed, left-skewed, symmetrical, and reversed-J shaped densities, and decreasing, increasing, bathtub, upside-down bathtub, increasing-decreasing–increasing, J shaped and reversed-J shaped hazard rates. The proposed distribution can model non-monotone  and monotone failure rates which are quite common in engineering and reliability studies. Some basic mathematical properties of the new model are derived. The maximum likelihood estimation method is used to evaluate the parameters and the observed information matrix is determined. The performance and flexibility of the proposed family is illustrated via two real data applications.

Two parameters Maxwell – Exponential distribution was proposed using the Maxwell generalized family of distribution. The probability density function, cumulative distribution function, survival function, hazard function, quantile function, and statistical properties of the proposed distribution are discussed. The parameters of the proposed distribution have been estimated using the maximum likelihood estimation method. The potentiality of the estimators was shown using a simulation study. The overall assessment of the performance of Maxwell - Exponential distribution was determined by using two real-life datasets. Our findings reveal that the Maxwell – Exponential distribution is more flexible compared to other competing distributions as it has the least value of information criteria.

This paper introduces a new generator of probability distribution-the adjusted log-logistic generalized (ALLoG) distribution and a new extension of the standard one parameter exponential distribution called the adjusted log-logistic generalized exponential (ALLoGExp) distribution. The ALLoGExp distribution is a special case of the ALLoG distribution and we have provided some of its statistical and reliability properties. Notably, the failure rate could be monotonically decreasing, increasing or upside-down bathtub shaped depending on the value of the parameters $\delta$ and $\theta$. The method of maximum likelihood estimation was proposed to estimate the model parameters. The importance and flexibility of he ALLoGExp distribution was demonstrated with a real and uncensored lifetime data set and its fit was compared with five other exponential related distributions. The results obtained from the model fittings shows that the ALLoGExp distribution provides a reasonably better fit than the one based on the other fitted distributions. The ALLoGExp distribution is therefore ecommended for effective modelling of lifetime data sets.

This paper presents a new generalization of the Topp-Leone distribution called the Topp-Leone Weibull Distribution (TLWD). Some of the mathematical properties of the proposed distribution are derived, and the maximum likelihood estimation method is adopted in estimating the parameters of the proposed distribution. An application of the proposed distribution alongside with some well-known distributions belonging to the Topp-Leone generated family of distributions, to a real lifetime data set reveals that the proposed distribution exhibits more flexibility in modeling lifetime data based on some comparison criteria such as maximized log-likelihood, Akaike Information Criterion [AIC=2k-2 log⁡(L) ], Kolmogorov-Smirnov test statistic (K-S) and Anderson Darling test statistic (A*) and Crammer-Von Mises test statistic (W*).

 In this work, we focus on some new theoretical and computational aspects of the Odd Lindley-Lomax model. The maximum likelihood estimation method is used to estimate the model parameters. We show empirically the importance and flexibility of the new model in modeling two types of aircraft windshield lifetime data. This model is much better than exponentiated Lomax, gamma Lomax, beta Lomax and Lomax models so the Odd Lindley-Lomax lifetime model is a good alternative to these models in modeling aircraft windshield data. A Monte Carlo simulation study is used to assess the performance of the maximum likelihood estimators.

The robust multi-array average (RMA), since its introduction in Irizarry, Bolstad,Collin, Cope, Hobbs, and Speed (2003a); Irizarry, Hobbs, Collin, Beazer-Barclay, An-tonellis, Scherf, and Speed (2003b); Irizarry, Wu, and Jaee (2006), has gained popularityamong bioinformaticians. It has evolved from the exponential-normal convolution to thegamma-normal convolution, from single to two channels and from the Aymetrix to theIllumina platform.The Illumina design provides two probe types: the regular and the control probes.This design is very suitable for studying the probability distribution of both and one canapply a convolution model to compute the true intensity estimator.In this paper, we study the existing convolution models for background correction ofIllumina BeadArrays in the literature and give a new estimator for the true intensity,assuming that the intensity value is exponentially or gamma distributed and the noise haslognormal distribution.Our study shows that one of our proposed models, the gamma-lognormal with themethod of moments for parameters estimation, is the optimal one for the benchmark-ing data set with benchmarking criteria, while the gamma-normal model has the bestperformance for the benchmarking data set with simulation criteria.For the publicly available data sets, the gamma-normal and the exponential-gammamodels with maximum likelihood estimation method can not be used and our proposedmodels exponential-lognormal and gamma-lognormal have the best performance, showinga moderate error in background correction and in the parametrization.
