This article proposed a Poisson based continuous probability distribution called Poisson-Rayleigh distribution. Some properties of the new distribution such as quantile and reliability functions and other useful measures were obtained. The model parameters were estimated using the method of maximum likelihood. The usefulness of the new distribution was proven empirically using real life datasets.

In this paper, for the first time we introduce a new four-parameter model called the Gumbel- Pareto distribution by using the T-X method. We obtain some of its mathematical properties. Some structural properties of the new distribution are studied. The method of maximum likelihood is used for estimating the model parameters. Numerical illustration and an application to a real data set are given to show the flexibility and potentiality of the new model.

In this paper, we introduce a new family of continuous distributions called the beta transmuted Dagum distribution which extends the beta and transmuted familys. The genesis of the beta distribution and transmuted map is used to develop the so-called beta transmuted Dagum (BTD) distribution. The hazard function, moments, moment generating function, quantiles and stress-strength of the beta transmuted Dagum distribution (BTD) are provided and discussed in detail. The method of maximum likelihood estimation is used for estimating the model parameters. A simulation study is carried out to show the performance of the maximum likelihood estimate of parameters of the new distribution. The usefulness of the new model is illustrated through an application to a real data set.

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.

This article introduces and studies a new probability distribution called “Transmuted Power Gompertz distribution”. It looks at the properties of the transmuted power Gompertz distribution. The article also estimates the four parameters of the new model using the method of maximum likelihood estimation. The article further evaluates the goodness-of-fit of the proposed distribution compared to other distributions by means of applications of the model to two real life datasets and the result show that the proposed distribution is more flexible than the fitted existing distributions.

This article introduces a new distribution called the Lomax-Gompertz distribution developed through a Lomax Generator proposed in an earlier study. Some statistical properties of the proposed distribution comprising moments, moment generating function, characteristics function, quantile function and the distribution of order statistics were derived. The plots of the probability density function revealed that it is positively skewed. The model parameters have been estimated using the method of maximum likelihood. The plot the of survival function indicates that the Lomax-Gompertz distribution could be used to model time or age-dependent data, where probability of survival is believed to be  decreasing  with time or age. The performance of the Lomax-Gompertz distribution has been compared to other generalizations of the Gompertz distribution using three real-life datasets used in earlier researches.

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 this paper, we define and study a new generalization of the Power distribution and the quadratic rank transmutation map (QRTM) in order to generate a flexible family of probability distribution taking Power distribution as the base distribution. The new distribution is called the beta transmuted Power (BTP) distribution. Some properties of the distribution such as moments, quantiles, mean deviation and order statistics are derived. The method of maximum likelihood is proposed to estimate the model parameters. The asymptotic confidence intervals for the parameters are also obtained based on asymptotic variance-covariance matrix. A simulation study is conducted to study the performance of the estimators. The importance and flexibility of the new model is proved empirically using a real data set.

We define a new four-parameter model called the odd log-logistic generalized inverse Gaussian distribution which extends the generalized inverse Gaussian and inverse Gaussian distributions. We obtain some structural properties of the new distribution. We construct an extended regression model based on this distribution with two systematic structures, which can provide more realistic fits to real data than other special regression models. We adopt the method of maximum likelihood to estimate the model parameters. In addition, various simulations are performed for different parameter settings and sample sizes to check the accuracy of the maximum likelihood estimators. We provide a diagnostics analysis based on case-deletion and quantile residuals. Finally, the potentiality of the new regression model to predict price of urban property is illustrated by means of real data.

This paper introduces a new three parameter Rayleigh distribution which generalizes the Rayleigh distribution. The new model is referred to as Extended Rayleigh (ER) distribution. Various mathematical properties of the new model including ordinary and incomplete moment, quantile function, generating function are derived. We propose the method of maximum likelihood for estimating the model parameters. A real life data set is used to compare the flexibility of the new model with other models.

The transmuted family of distributions has been receiving increased attention over the last few years. For a baselineGdistribution, we derive a simple representation for the transmuted-Gfamily density function as a linear mixture of theGand exponentiated-Gdensities. We investigate the asymptotes and shapes and obtain explicit expressions for the ordinary and incomplete moments, quantile and generating functions, mean deviations, Rényi and Shannon entropies, and order statistics and their moments. We estimate the model parameters of the family by the method of maximum likelihood. We prove empirically the flexibility of the proposed model by means of an application to a real data set.
