The Uniform Truncated Negative Binomial Distribution and its Properties

Quasi-negative binomial distribution: Properties and applications

In this paper, a quasi-negative binomial distribution (QNBD) derived from the class of generalized Lagrangian probability distributions is studied. The negative binomial distribution is a special case of QNBD. Some properties of QNBD, including the upper tail behavior and limiting distributions, are investigated. It is shown that the moments do not exist in some situations and the limiting dist...

Negative Binomial-Lindley Distribution and Its Application

Problem statement: The modeling of claims count is one of the most important topics in actuarial theory and practice. Many attempts were implemented in expanding the classes of mixed and compound distributions, especially in the distribution of exponential family, resulting in a better fit on count data. In some cases, it is proven that mixed distributions, in particular mixed Poisson and mixed...

The Weibull Negative Binomial Distribution

We propose the Weibull negative binomial distribution that is a quite flexible model to analyze positive data, and includes as special submodels the Weibull, Weibull Poisson and Weibull geometric distributions. Some of its structural properties follow from the fact that its density function can be expressed as a mixture of Weibull densities. We provide explicit expressions for moments, generati...

Exp-Uniform Distribution: Properties and Characterizations

In this paper, we study properties of exp-uniform distribution and its applications. We provide closed forms for the density function and moments of order statistics and we also discuss estimation of the parameters via the maximum likelihood method. We will present certain characterizations of exp-uniform distribution. The applications of this distribution are illustrated by fitting it to three...
