In this paper, a new parametric compound G family of continuous probability distributions called the Poisson generalized exponential G (PGEG) family is derived and studied. Relevant mathematical properties are derived. Some new bivariate G families using the theorems of “Farlie-Gumbel-Morgenstern copula”, “the modified Farlie-Gumbel-Morgenstern copula”, “the Clayton copula”, and “the Renyi’s entropy copula” are presented. Many special members are derived, and a special attention is devoted to the exponential and the one parameter Pareto type II model. The maximum likelihood method is used to estimate the model parameters. A graphical simulation is performed to assess the finite sample behavior of the estimators of the maximum likelihood method. Two real-life data applications are proposed to illustrate the importance of the new family.

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.

This paper introduces a new flexible four-parameter lifetime model. Various of its structural properties are derived. The new density is expressed as a linear mixture of well-known exponentiated Weibull density. The maximum likelihood method is used to estimate the model parameters. Graphical simulation results to assess the performance of the maximum likelihood estimation are performed. We proved empirically the importance and flexibility of the new model in modeling four various types of data.

In this paper, a new family of polyno-expo-trigonometric distributions is presented and investigated. A special case using the Weibull distribution, with three parameters, is considered as statistical model for lifetime data. The estimation of the parameters is performed with the maximum likelihood method. A numerical simulation study verifies that the bias and the mean squared error of the maximum likelihood estimators tend to zero as the sample size is increased. Three real life datasets are then analyzed. We show that our model has a good fit in comparison to the other well-known powerful models in 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.

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.

In this study, a new flexible family of distributions is proposed with its statistical properties as well as some useful characterizations. The maximum likelihood method is used to estimate the unknown model parameters by means of two simulation studies. A new regression model is proposed based on a special member of the proposed family called, the log odd power Lindley Weibull distribution. Residual analysis is conducted to evaluate the model assumptions. Four applications to real data sets are given to demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed model.

We propose a new two-parameter discrete model, called discrete Type-II half-logistics exponential (DTIIHLE) distribution using the survival discretization approach. The DTIIHLE distribution can be utilized to model COVID-19 data. The model parameters are estimated using the maximum likelihood method. A simulation study is conducted to evaluate the performance of the maximum likelihood estimators. The usefulness of the proposed distribution is evaluated using two real-life COVID-19 data sets. The DTIIHLE distribution provides a superior fit to COVID-19 data as compared with competitive discrete models including the discrete-Pareto, discrete Burr-XII, discrete log-logistic, discrete-Lindley, discrete-Rayleigh, discrete inverse-Rayleigh, and natural discrete-Lindley.

<p>This paper introduces a new four-parameter lifetime model, which extends the Marshall-Olkin Fr\'{e}chet distribution introduced by Krishna et al. (2013), called the transmuted Marshall-Olkin Fr\'{e}chet distribution. Various structural properties including ordinary and incomplete moments, quantile and generating function, R\'{e}nyi and q-entropies and order statistics are<br />derived. The maximum likelihood method is used to estimate the model parameters. We illustrate the superiority of the proposed distribution over other existing distributions in the literature in modeling two real life data sets.</p>

In this paper, we introduce a new family of distributions extending the odd family of distributions. A new tuning parameter is introduced, with some connections to the well-known transmuted transformation. Some mathematical results are obtained, including moments, generating function and order statistics. Then, we study a special case dealing with the standard loglogistic distribution and the modifiedWeibull distribution. Its main features are to have densities with flexible shapes where skewness, kurtosis, heavy tails and modality can be observed, and increasing-decreasing-increasing, unimodal and bathtub shaped hazard rate functions. Estimation of the related parameters is investigated by the maximum likelihood method. We illustrate the usefulness of our extended odd family of distributions with applications to two practical data sets.

The purpose of this paper was to identify the values of the parameters of the shape of the binomial, bias one and natural distributions. Using the estimation method and maximum likelihood Method, the criterion of differentiation was used to estimate the shape parameter between the probability distributions and to arrive at the best estimate of the parameter of the shape when the sample sizes are small, medium, The problem was to find the best estimate of the characteristics of the society to be estimated so that they are close to the estimated average of the mean error squares and also the effect of the estimation method on estimating the shape parameter of the distributions at the sizes of different samples In the values of the different shape parameter, the descriptive and inductive method was selected in the analysis of the data by generating 1000 random numbers of different sizes using the simulation method through the MATLAB program. A number of results were reached, 10) to estimate the small shape parameter (0.3) for binomial distributions and Poisson and natural and they can use the Poisson distribution because it is the best among the distributions, and to estimate the parameter of figure (0.5), (0.7), (0.9) Because it is better for binomial binomial distributions, when the size of a sample (70) for a teacher estimate The small figure (0.3) of the binomial and boson distributions and natural distributions can be used for normal distribution because it is the best among the distributions.
