The article presents an extension of the Gompertz-Makeham distribution using the Lomax generator of probability distributions. This generalization of the Gompertz-Makeham distribution provides a more skewed and flexible compound model called Lomax Gompertz-Makeham distribution. The paper derives and discusses some Mathematical and Statistical properties of the new distribution. The unknown parameters of the new model are estimated via the method of maximum likelihood estimation. In conclusion, the new distribution is applied to two real life datasets together with two other related models to check its flexibility or performance and the results indicate that the proposed extension is more flexible compared to the other two distributions considered in the paper based on the two datasets used.

New Distribution

A new three-parameter life parametric model called the Marshall-Olkin generalized Weibull is defined and studied. Relevant properties are mathematically derived and analyzed. The new density exhibits various important symmetric and asymmetric shapes with different useful kurtosis. The new failure rate can be “constant”, “upside down-constant (reversed U-HRF-constant)”, “increasing then constant”, “monotonically increasing”, “J-HRF” and “monotonically decreasing”. The method of maximum likelihood is employed to estimate the unknown parameters. A graphical simulation is performed to assess the performance of the maximum likelihood estimation. We checked and proved empirically the importance, applicability and flexibility of the new Weibull model in modeling various symmetric and asymmetric types of data. The new distribution has a high ability to model different symmetric and asymmetric types of data.

Developing new compound distributions which are more flexible than the existing distributions have become the new trend in distribution theory. In this present study, the Lomax distribution was extended using the Gompertz family of distribution, its resulting densities and statistical properties were carefully derived, and the method of maximum likelihood estimation was proposed in estimating the model parameters. A simulation study to assess the performance of the parameters of Gompertz Lomax distribution was provided and an application to real life data was provided to assess the potentials of the newly derived distribution. Excerpt from the analysis indicates that the Gompertz Lomax distribution performed better than the Beta Lomax distribution, Weibull Lomax distribution, and Kumaraswamy Lomax distribution.

In this article a continuous distribution, the so-called transmuted additive Weibull distribution, that extends the additive Weibull distribution and some other distributions is proposed and studied. We will use the quadratic rank transmutation map proposed by Shaw and Buckley (2009) in order to generate the transmuted additiveWeibull distribution. Various structural properties of the new distribution including explicit expressions for the moments, random number generation and order statistics are derived. Maximum likelihood estimation of the unknown parameters of the new model for completesample is also discussed. It will be shown that the analytical results are applicable to model real world data.

AbstractThis article introduces a new lifetime distribution called the transmuted Erlang-truncated exponential (TETE) distribution. This new distribution generalizes the two parameter Erlang-truncated exponential (ETE) distribution. Closed form expressions for some of its distributional and reliability properties are provided. The method of maximum likelihood estimation was proposed for estimating the parameters of the TETE distribution. The hazard rate function of the TETE distribution can be constant, increasing or decreasing depending on the value of the transmutation parameter

Lomax Distribution

A new truncated distribution, called the truncated power Lomax (TPL) distribution, is proposed. This is a truncated version of the power Lomax distribution. The TPL distribution has increasing and decreasing shapes of the hazard function. Some statistical properties, such as moments, survival, hazard, and quantile functions, are discussed. The maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) is constructed for estimating the unknown parameters of the TPL distribution. Moreover, the distribution has been fitted with real data sets to illustrate the usefulness of the proposed distribution. From the results of the example applications, the TPL distribution provides a consistently better fit than the other distributions, i.e., power Lomax and Lomax.

New Distribution

In this paper, we introduce and study a new three-parameter lifetime distribution constructed from the so-called type I half-logistic-G family and the inverted Kumaraswamy distribution, naturally called the type I half-logistic inverted Kumaraswamy distribution. The main feature of this new distribution is to add a new tuning parameter to the inverted Kumaraswamy (according to the type I half-logistic structure), with the aim to increase the flexibility of the related inverted Kumaraswamy model and thus offering more precise diagnostics in data analyses. The new distribution is discussed in detail, exhibiting various mathematical and statistical properties, with related graphics and numerical results. An exhaustive simulation was conducted to investigate the estimation of the model parameters via several well-established methods, including the method of maximum likelihood estimation, methods of least squares and weighted least squares estimation, and method of Cramer-von Mises minimum distance estimation, showing their numerical efficiency. Finally, by considering the method of maximum likelihood estimation, we apply the new model to fit two practical data sets. In this regards, it is proved to be better than recent models, also derived to the inverted Kumaraswamy distribution.

In this article, the Quadratic rank transmutation map proposed and studied by Shaw and Buckley [1] is used to construct and study a new distribution called the transmuted Lomax-Exponential distribution (TLED) as an extension of the Lomax-Exponential distribution recently proposed by Ieren and Kuhe [2]. Using the transmutation map, we defined the probability density function and cumulative distribution function of the transmuted Lomax-Exponential distribution. Some properties of the new distribution such as moments, moment generating function, characteristics function, quantile function, survival function, hazard function and order statistics are also studied. The estimation of the distributions’ parameters has been done using the method of maximum likelihood estimation. The performance of the proposed probability distribution is being tested in comparison with some other generalizations of Exponential distribution using a real life dataset. The results obtained show that the TLED performs better than the other probability distributions.

New Class

AbstractA new generalized class of Lindley distribution is introduced in this paper. This new class is called the T-Lindley{Y} class of distributions, and it is generated by using the quantile functions of uniform, exponential, Weibull, log-logistic, logistic and Cauchy distributions. The statistical properties including the modes, moments and Shannon’s entropy are discussed. Three new generalized Lindley distributions are investigated in more details. For estimating the unknown parameters, the maximum likelihood estimation has been used and a simulation study was carried out. Lastly, the usefulness of this new proposed class in fitting lifetime data is illustrated using four different data sets. In the application section, the strength of members of the T-Lindley{Y} class in modeling both unimodal as well as bimodal data sets is presented. A member of the T-Lindley{Y} class of distributions outperformed other known distributions in modeling unimodal and bimodal lifetime data sets.
