چکیده

This article discusses a family of distributions which would seem not to receive proper attention in the literature. The twoparameter distribution is introduced with an application in the financial engineering domain. Special cases of this family include the triangular distribution, the standard power function distribution, and the uniform distribution. Properties of the distribution are investigated and the maximum likelihood estimation procedure for its two parameters is derived. The flexibility of the family as compared to that of the beta family is discussed.

ON THE POWER FUNCTION OF THE LRT AGAINST ONE-SIDED AND TWO-SIDED ALTERNATIVES IN BIVARIATE NORMAL DISTRIBUTION

This paper addresses the problem of testing simple hypotheses about the mean of a bivariate normal distribution with identity covariance matrix against restricted alternatives. The LRTs and their power functions for such types of hypotheses are derived. Furthermore, through some elementary calculus, it is shown that the power function of the LRT satisfies certain monotonicity and symmetry p...

Power Normal-Geometric Distribution: Model, Properties and Applications

In this paper, we introduce a new skewed distribution of which normal and power normal distributions are two special cases. This distribution is obtained by taking geometric maximum of independent identically distributed power normal random variables. We call this distribution as the power normal--geometric distribution. Some mathematical properties of the new distribution are presented. Maximu...

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 ...

A New Five-Parameter Distribution: Properties and Applications

In this paper, a new five-parameter lifetime and reliability distribution named “the exponentiated Uniform-Pareto distribution (EU-PD),” has been suggested that it has a bathtub-shaped and inverse bathtub-shape for modeling lifetime data. This distribution has applications in economics, actuarial modelling, reliability modeling, lifetime and biological sciences. Firstly, the mathematical and st...
