In this paper, a new generator of continuous distributions called the odd flexible Weibull-H family is proposed and studied. Some of its statistical properties including quantile, skewness, kurtosis, hazard rate function, moments, incomplete moments, mean deviations, coefficient of variation, Bonferroni and Lorenz curves, moments of the residual (past) lifetimes and entropies are studied. Two special models are introduced and discussed in-detail. The maximum likelihood method is used to estimate the model parameters based on complete and upper record data. Adetailed simulation study is carried out to examine the bias and mean square error of maximum likelihood estimators. Finally, three applications to real data sets show the flexibility of the new family.

This work introduces a new one-parameter compound G family. Relevant statistical properties are derived. The new density can be “asymmetric right skewed with one peak and a heavy tail”, “symmetric” and “left skewedwith one peak”. The new hazard function can be “upside-down”, “upside-down-constant”, “increasing”, “decreasing” and “decreasing-constant”. Many bivariate types have been also derived via different common copulas. The estimation of the model parameters is performed by maximum likelihood method. The usefulness and flexibility of the new family is illustrated by means of two real data sets.

We study some mathematical properties of a new generator of continuous distributions with two extra parameters called the exponentiated half-logistic family. We present some special models. We investigate the shapes of the density and hazard rate function. We derive explicit expressions for the ordinary and incomplete moments, quantile and generating functions, probability weighted moments, Bonferroni and Lorenz curves, Shannon and Rényi entropies, and order statistics, which hold for any baseline model. We introduce two bivariate extensions of this family. We discuss the estimation of the model parameters by maximum likelihood and demonstrate the potentiality of the new family by means of two real data sets.

Unit distributions are commonly used in probability and statistics to describe useful quantities with values between 0 and 1, such as proportions, probabilities, and percentages. Some unit distributions are defined in a natural analytical manner, and the others are derived through the transformation of an existing distribution defined in a greater domain. In this article, we introduce the unit gamma/Gompertz distribution, founded on the inverse-exponential scheme and the gamma/Gompertz distribution. The gamma/Gompertz distribution is known to be a very flexible three-parameter lifetime distribution, and we aim to transpose this flexibility to the unit interval. First, we check this aspect with the analytical behavior of the primary functions. It is shown that the probability density function can be increasing, decreasing, “increasing-decreasing” and “decreasing-increasing”, with pliant asymmetric properties. On the other hand, the hazard rate function has monotonically increasing, decreasing, or constant shapes. We complete the theoretical part with some propositions on stochastic ordering, moments, quantiles, and the reliability coefficient. Practically, to estimate the model parameters from unit data, the maximum likelihood method is used. We present some simulation results to evaluate this method. Two applications using real data sets, one on trade shares and the other on flood levels, demonstrate the importance of the new model when compared to other unit models.

In this article, we introduced a new extension of the binomial-exponential 2 distribution. We discussed some of its structural mathematical properties. A simple type Copula-based construction is also presented to construct the bivariate- and multivariate-type distributions. We estimated the model parameters via the maximum likelihood method. Finally, we illustrated the importance of the new model by the study of two real data applications to show the flexibility and potentiality of the new model in modeling skewed and symmetric data sets.

In this article, we introduce a new general family of distributions derived to the truncated inverted Kumaraswamy distribution (on the unit interval), called the truncated inverted Kumaraswamy generated family. Among its qualities, it is characterized with tractable functions, has the ability to enhance the flexibility of a given distribution, and demonstrates nice statistical properties, including competitive fits for various kinds of data. A particular focus is given on a special member of the family defined with the exponential distribution as baseline, offering a new three-parameter lifetime distribution. This new distribution has the advantage of having a hazard rate function allowing monotonically increasing, decreasing, and upside-down bathtub shapes. In full generality, important properties of the new family are determined, with an emphasis on the entropy (Rényi and Shannon entropy). The estimation of the model parameters is established by the maximum likelihood method. A numerical simulation study illustrates the nice performance of the obtained estimates. Two practical data sets are then analyzed. We thus prove the potential of the new model in terms of fitting, with favorable results in comparison to other modern parametric models of the literature.

In this article, we propose a new family of distributions using the T-X family named as modified generalized Marshall-Olkin family of distributions. Comprehensive mathematical and statistical properties of this family of distributions are provided. The model parameters are estimated by maximum likelihood method. The maximum likelihood estimation under Type-II censoring is also discussed. Two lifetime data sets are used to show the suitability and applicability of the new family of distributions. For comparison purposes, different goodness of fit tests are used.

A new family of probability distributions is defined and applied for modeling symmetric real-life datasets. Some new bivariate type G families using Farlie–Gumbel–Morgenstern copula, modified Farlie–Gumbel–Morgenstern copula, Clayton copula and Renyi’s entropy copula are derived. Moreover, some of its statistical properties are presented and studied. Next, the maximum likelihood estimation method is used. A graphical assessment based on biases and mean squared errors is introduced. Based on this assessment, the maximum likelihood method performs well and can be used for estimating the model parameters. Finally, two symmetric real-life applications to illustrate the importance and flexibility of the new family are proposed. The symmetricity of the real data is proved nonparametrically using the kernel density estimation method.

AbstractWe introduce a new family of univariate continuous distributions called the Marshall–Olkin transmuted-G family which extends the transmuted-G family pioneered by Shaw and Buckley (2007). Special models for the new family are provided. Some of its mathematical properties including quantile measure, explicit expressions for the ordinary and incomplete moments, generating function, Rényi and Shannon entropies, order statistics and probability weighted moments are derived. The estimation of the model parameters is performed by maximum likelihood. The flexibility of the proposed family is illustrated by means of two applications to real data sets.

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.
