چکیده

In this paper, the generalized gamma (GG) distribution that is a flexible distribution in statistical literature, and has exponential, gamma, and Weibull as subfamilies, and lognormal as a limiting distribution is introduced. The power and logarithmic moments of this family is defined. A new moment estimation method of parameters of GG family using it’s characterization is presented, this method is compared with MLE method in gamma subfamily for small and large sample size. Here we study GG entropy representation and its estimation. In addition Kullback-Leibler discrimination , Akaike and Bayesian information criterion is discussed. In brief, this paper consist of presentation of general review of important properties in GG family.

An Extended Generalized Lindley Distribution and Its Applications to Lifetime Data

In this paper, a four parameters extension of the generalized Lindley distribution is introduced. The new distribution includes the power Lindley, Lindley, generalized (Stacy) gamma, gamma, Weibull, Rayleigh, exponential and half-normal distribution. Several statistical properties of the distribution are explored. Then, a bivariate version of the proposed distribution is derived. Using a simula...

On Symmetric Extended Generalized Logistic Distribution

In this paper, we consider a form of the generalized logistic distribution named symmetric extended generalized logistic distribution or extended type III generalized logistic distribution. The distribution is derived by compounding a two-parameter generalized Gumbel distribution with a two-parameter generalized gamma distribution. The cumulative distribution and some properties of this distrib...

Bayesian paradigm for analysing count data in longitudina studies using Poisson-generalized log-gamma model

In analyzing longitudinal data with counted responses, normal distribution is usually used for distribution of the random efffects. However, in some applications random effects may not be normally distributed. Misspecification of this distribution may cause reduction of efficiency of estimators. In this paper, a generalized log-gamma distribution is used for the random effects which includes th...

The Exponentiated Generalized NH Distribution

Nadarajah and Haghighi (2011) introduced a new generalization of the exponential distribution as an alternative to the gamma, Weibull and exponeniated exponential distributions. In this paper, a generalization of the Nadarajah– Haghighi (NH) distribution namely exponentiated generalized NH distribution is introduced and discussed. The properties and applications of proposed model to real dat...
