Half-Logistic Xgamma Distribution: Properties and Estimation under Censored Samples

Estimation of Parameters for an Extended Generalized Half Logistic Distribution Based on Complete and Censored Data

This paper considers an Extended Generalized Half Logistic distribution. We derive some properties of this distribution and then we discuss estimation of the distribution parameters by the methods of moments, maximum likelihood and the new method of minimum spacing distance estimator based on complete data. Also, maximum likelihood equations for estimating the parameters based on Type-I and Typ...

Entropy Estimation of Generalized Half-Logistic Distribution (GHLD) Based on Type-II Censored Samples

This paper derives the entropy of a generalized half-logistic distribution based on Type-II censored samples, obtains some entropy estimators by using Bayes estimators of an unknown parameter in the generalized half-logistic distribution based on Type-II censored samples and compares these estimators in terms of the mean squared error and the bias through Monte Carlo simulations.

Bayesian Estimation of Generalized Half Logistic Distribution Under Progressive Type-II Censored

In this paper, given a progressively type II censored sample from a generalized half logistic distribution, the Bayesian estimators are obtained under asymmetric loss functions such as LINEX loss function, Precautionary loss function, Entropy loss function for the parameter, Reliability and cumulative hazard functions. Comparisons of these estimators are made through simulation studies. Mathema...

The xgamma Distribution: Statistical Properties and Application

A new probability distribution, the xgamma distribution, is proposed and studied. The distribution is generated as a special finite mixture of exponential and gamma distributions and hence the name proposed. Various mathematical, structural, and survival properties of the xgamma distribution are derived, and it is found that in many cases the xgamma has more flexibility than the exponential dis...
