چکیده

A three-parameters continuous distribution, namely, Power Lomax distribution (POLO) is proposed and studied for remission times of bladder cancer data. POLO distribution accommodate both inverted bathtub and decreasing hazard rate. Several statistical and reliability properties are derived. Point estimation via method of moments and maximum likelihood and the interval estimation are also studied. The simulation schemes are calculated to examine the bias and mean square error of the maximum likelihood parameter estimators. Finally, a real data application about the remission time of bladder cancer is used to illustrate the usefulness of the proposed distribution in modelling real data application. The characteristics of the fitting data using the proposed distribution are compared with known extensions of Lomax distribution. The comparison showed that the POLO distribution outfit most well-known extensions of Lomax distribution.

The Exponentiated Lomax – Rayleigh (E-LR) Distribution, Properties and Applications

In this paper a new four-parameter lifetime distribution named “the exponentiated Lomax – Rayleigh (E-LR) distribution” has been suggested that it has an increasing hazard rate for modeling lifetime data. The Lomax distribution has applications in economics, actuarial modelling, reliability modeling, lifetime and queuing problems and biological sciences. In this paper Firstly, the mathematical ...

The Lomax-Exponential Distribution, Some Properties and Applications

Abstract: The exponential distribution is a popular model in applications to real data. We propose a new extension of this distribution, called the Lomax-exponential distribution, which presents greater flexibility to the model. Also there is a simple relation between the Lomax-exponential distribution and the Lomax distribution. Results for moment, limit behavior, hazard function, Shannon entr...
