This article uses the odd Lomax-G family of distributions to study a new extension of the Kumaraswamy distribution called “odd Lomax-Kumaraswamy distribution”. In this article, the density and distribution functions of the odd Lomax-Kumaraswamy distribution are defined and studied with many other properties of the distribution such as the ordinary moments, moment generating function, characteristic function, quantile function, reliability functions, order statistics and other useful measures. The model parameters are estimated by the method of maximum likelihood. The goodness-of-fit of the proposed distribution is demonstrated using two real data sets.

This article uses the odd Lindley-G family of distributions to propose and study a new compound distribution called “odd Lindley-Kumaraswamy distribution”. In this article, the density and distribution functions of the odd Lindley-Kumaraswamy distribution are defined and studied by deriving and discussing many properties of the distribution such as the ordinary moments, moment generating function, characteristics function, quantile function, reliability functions, order statistics and other useful measures. The unknown model parameters are also estimated by the method of maximum likelihood. The goodness-of-fit of the proposed distribution is demonstrated using two real life datasets. The results show that the proposed distribution outperforms the other fitted compound models selected for this study and hence it is a flexible generalization of the Kumaraswamy distribution.

In this article, we present a new generalization of weighted Weibull distribution using Topp Leone family of distributions. We have studied some statistical properties of the proposed distribution including quantile function, moment generating function, probability generating function, raw moments, incomplete moments, probability, weighted moments, Rayeni and q th entropy. The have obtained numerical values of the various measures to see the eect of model parameters. Distribution of of order statistics for the proposed model has also been obtained. The estimation of the model parameters has been done by using maximum likelihood method. The eectiveness of proposed model is analyzed by means of a real data sets. Finally, some concluding remarks are given.

We study some mathematical properties of the beta generalized half-normal distribution recently proposed by Pescim et al. (2010). This model is quite flexible for analyzing positive real data since it contains as special models the half-normal, exponentiated half-normal, and generalized half-normal distributions. We provide a useful power series for the quantile function. Some new explicit expressions are derived for the mean deviations, Bonferroni and Lorenz curves, reliability, and entropy. We demonstrate that the density function of the beta generalized half-normal order statistics can be expressed as a mixture of generalized half-normal densities. We obtain two closed-form expressions for their moments and other statistical measures. The method of maximum likelihood is used to estimate the model parameters censored data. The beta generalized half-normal model is modified to cope with long-term survivors may be present in the data. The usefulness of this distribution is illustrated in the analysis of four real data sets.

We proposed a new family of distributions called the Topp Leone exponentiated-G family of distributions with two extra positive shape parameters, which generalizes and also extends the Topp Leone-G family of distributions. We derived some mathematical properties of the proposed family including explicit expressions for the quantile function, ordinary and incomplete moments, generating function and reliability. Some sub-models in the new family were discussed. The method of maximum likelihood was used to estimate the parameters of the sub-model. Further, the potentiality of the family was illustrated by fitting two real data sets to the mentioned sub-models.

We introduce a new class of continuous distributions called the complementary generalized transmuted Poisson-G family, which extends the transmuted class pioneered by Shaw and Buckley (2007). We provide some special models and derive general mathematical properties including quantile function, explicit expressions for the ordinary and incomplete moments, generating function, Rényi and Shannon entropies and order statistics. The estimation of the model parameters is performed by maximum likelihood. The flexibility of the new family is illustrated by means of two applications to real data sets.

We propose and study the so-called extended generalized gamma geometric distribution. The proposed distribution has five parameters and it can be accommodate increasing, decreasing, bathtub and unimodal shaped hazard functions. The new distribution has a large number of well-known lifetime special sub-models such as the generalized gamma geometric, Weibull geometric, gamma geometric, exponential geometric, Rayleigh geometric, half-normal geometric among others. We provide a mathematical treatment of the new distribution including explicit expressions for moments, moment generating function, mean deviations, reliability and order statistics. The method of maximum likelihood and a Bayesian procedure are adopted for estimating the model parameters. Finally, an application of the new distribution is illustrated in a real data sets.

Background: In the last few years, statisticians have introduced new generated families of univariate distributions. These new generators are obtained by adding one or more extra shape parameters to the underlying distribution to get more flexibility in fitting data in different areas such as medical sciences, economics, finance and environmental sciences. The addition of parameter(s) has been proven useful in exploring tail properties and also for improving the goodness-of-fit of the family of distributions under study. Methods: A new three-parameter family of distributions was introduced by using the idea of T-X methodology. Some statistical properties of the new family were derived and studied. Results: A new Topp Leone Kumaraswamy-G family of distributions was introduced. Two special sub-models, that is, the Topp Leone Kumaraswamy exponential distribution and Topp Leone Kumaraswamy log-logistic distribution were investigated. Two real data sets were used to assess the flexibility of the sub-models. Conclusion: The results suggest that the two sub-models performed better than their competitors.

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.

In this article, we introduce a new distribution called the McDonald Erlangtruncated exponential distribution. Various structural properties including explicit expressions for the moments, moment generating function, mean deviation of the new distribution are derived. The estimation of the model parameters is performed by maximum likelihood method. The usefulness of the new distribution is illustrated by two real data sets. The new model is much better than other important competitive models in modeling relief times and survival times data sets.

We propose a new distribution called the extended generalized inverse exponential distribution with four positive parameters, which extends the generalized inverse exponential distribution. We derive some mathematical properties of the proposed model including explicit expressions for the quantile function, moments, generating function, survival, hazard rate, reversed hazard rate and odd functions. The method of maximum likelihood is used to estimate the parameters of the distribution. We illustrate its potentiality with applications to two real data sets which show that the extended generalized inverse exponential model provides a better fit than other models considered.
