Change Point Analysis for Kumaraswamy Distribution

The Kumaraswamy-geometric distribution

In this paper, the Kumaraswamy-geometric distribution, which is a member of the T -geometric family of discrete distributions is defined and studied. Some properties of the distribution such as moments, probability generating function, hazard and quantile functions are studied. The method of maximum likelihood estimation is proposed for estimating the model parameters. Two real data sets are us...

Characterizations of Kumaraswamy-Geometric Distribution

Inference on the Kumaraswamy distribution

Many lifetime distribution models have successfully served as population models for risk analysis and reliability mechanisms. The Kumaraswamy distribution is one of these distributions which is particularly useful to many natural phenomena whose outcomes have lower and upper bounds or bounded outcomes in the biomedical and epidemiological research. This paper studies point estimation and interv...

Inference on the Log-Exponentiated Kumaraswamy Distribution

In this paper, the log-exponentiated Kumaraswamy (LEK) distribution is introduced and studied as a survival model of unemployment, its survived function has the interesting property that it can be decreasing depending on the shape parameters. The method of maximum likelihood is applied for estimating the model parameters, survival and hazard rate functions. Stratification is used to reduce hete...

The Kumaraswamy-Generalized Exponentiated Pareto Distribution

The modeling and analysis of lifetimes is an important aspect of statistical work in a wide variety of scientific and technological fields. For the first time the Kum-GEP distribution is introduced and studied. This distribution can have a decreasing and upside-down bathtub failure rate function depending on the value of its parameters; it's including some special sub-model like exponentiated P...
