The odd inverse Pareto-Weibull distribution is introduced as a new lifetime distribution based on the inverse Pareto and the T-X family. Some mathematical properties of the new distribution are studied. The method of maximum likelihood is used for estimating the model parameters and the observed Fisher’s information matrix is derived. The importance and flexibility of the proposed model are assessed using a real data.

In this article, a new family of lifetime distributions by adding an additional parameter to the existing distributions is introduced. The new family is called, the extended alpha power transformed family of distributions. For the proposed family, explicit expressions for some mathematical properties along with estimation of parameters through Maximum likelihood Method are discussed. A special sub-model, called the extended alpha power transformed Weibull distribution is considered in detail. The proposed model is very flexible and can be used to model data with increasing, decreasing or bathtub shaped hazard rates. To access the behavior of the model parameters, a small simulation study has also been carried out. For the new family, some useful characterizations are also presented. Finally, the potentiality of the proposed method is showen via analyzing two real data sets taken from reliability engineering and bio-medical fields.

In this paper, we introduce a new family of univariate distributions with two extra positive parameters generated from inverse Weibull random variable called the inverse Weibull generated (IW-G) family. The new family provides a lot of new models as well as contains two new families as special cases. We explore four special models for the new family. Some mathematical properties of the new family including quantile function, ordinary and incomplete moments, probability weighted moments, Rѐnyi entropy and order statistics are derived. The estimation of the model parameters is performed via maximum likelihood method. Applications show that the new family of distributions can provide a better fit than several existing lifetime models.

istribution of Lindley distribution constructed by combining the cumulative distribution function (cdf) of Lomax and Lindley distributions. Some mathematical properties of the new distribution are discussed including moments, quantile and moment generating function. Estimation of the model parameters is carried out using maximum likelihood method. Finally, real data examples are presented to illustrate the usefulness and applicability of this new distribution.

In this article, we introduce an extension referred to as the exponentiated Weibull power function distribution based on the exponentiated Weibull-G family of distributions. The proposed model serves as an extension of the two-parameter power function distribution as well as a generalization to the Weibull power function presented by Tahir et al. (2016 a). Various mathematical properties of the subject distribution are studied. General explicit expressions for the quantile function, expansion of density and distribution functions, moments, generating function, incomplete moments, conditional moments, residual life function, mean deviation, inequality measures, Rényi and q – entropies, probability weighted moments and order statistics are obtained. The estimation of the model parameters is discussed using maximum likelihood method. Finally, the practical importance of the proposed distribution is examined through three real data sets. It has been concluded that the new distribution works better than other competing models.

In this paper, a new five-parameter extended Burr XII model called new modified Singh-Maddala (NMSM) is developed from cumulative hazard function of the modified log extended integrated beta hazard (MLEIBH) model. The NMSM density function is left-skewed, right-skewed and symmetrical. The Lambert W function is used to study descriptive measures based on quantile, moments, and moments of order statistics, incomplete moments, inequality measures and residual life function. Different reliability and uncertainty measures are also theoretically established. The NMSM distribution is characterized via different techniques and its parameters are estimated using maximum likelihood method. The simulation studies are performed on the basis of graphical results to illustrate the performance of maximum likelihood estimates (MLEs) of the parameters. The significance and flexibility of NMSM distribution is tested through different measures by application to two real data sets.

Abstract: The paper deals with the introduction of new generalized model i.e., Rayleigh Lomax distribution. In this manuscript, a comprehensive description of the various structural properties of the new proposed model including explicit expressions for moments, quantile function, generating functions and Renyi entropy have been given. The parameters of the newly developed distribution have been estimated using the technique of maximum likelihood estimation. Also, the generalized model has been compared with different models for illustration and best fit.

In this work, we introduce a new distribution for modeling the extreme values. Some important mathematical properties of the new model are derived. We assess the performance of the maximum likelihood method in terms of biases and mean squared errors by means of a simulation study. The new model is better than some other important competitive models in modeling the repair times data and the breaking stress data.

We introduce a new class of distributions called the generalized odd generalized exponential family. Some of its mathematical properties including explicit expressions for the ordinary and incomplete moments, quantile and generating functions, R𝑒́nyi, Shannon and q-entropies, order statistics and probability weighted moments are derived. We also propose bivariate generalizations. We constructed a simple type Copula and intro-duced a useful stochastic property. The maximum likelihood method is used for estimating the model parameters. The importance and flexibility of the new family are illustrated by means of two applications to real data sets. We assess the performance of the maximum likelihood estimators in terms of biases and mean squared errors via a simulation study.

In this paper, we introduce a new four-parameter distribution called the transmuted Weibull power function (TWPF) distribution which e5xtends the transmuted family proposed by Shaw and Buckley [1]. The hazard rate function of the TWPF distribution can be constant, increasing, decreasing, unimodal, upside down bathtub shaped or bathtub shape. Some mathematical properties are derived including quantile functions, expansion of density function, moments, moment generating function, residual life function, reversed residual life function, mean deviation, inequality measures. The estimation of the model parameters is carried out using the maximum likelihood method. The importance and flexibility of the proposed model are proved empirically using real data sets.
