On Symmetric Extended Generalized Logistic Distribution

author

Abstract:

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 distribution like moments and related statistics are established. Some theorems that characterize the distribution are stated and proved. Estimation of the parameters and an application of the distribution are also presented.

On extended type I generalized logistic distribution

The importance of the logistic distribution has already been felt in many areas of human endeavour. Verhulst [12] used it in economic and demographic studies. Berkson [3, 4, 5] used the distribution extensively in analyzing bioassay and quantal response data. The works [6, 9, 10, 11, 8] are a few of many publications on logistic distribution. The simplicity of the logistic distribution and its ...

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...

A generalized logistic distribution

for −∞ < z < ∞. The properties of this distribution and its generalizations have been studied by several authors. Of particular eminence are the numerous papers on this topic by Professor N. Balakrishnan and his colleagues; see, for example, Balakrishnan [1, 2, 3], Balakrishnan and Aggarwala [4], Balakrishnan et al. [5, 7, 12], Balakrishnan and Chan [6], Balakrishnan and Joshi [8], Balakrishnan...

The Type I Generalized Half Logistic Distribution

In this paper, we considered the half logistic model and derived a probability density function that generalized it. The cumulative distribution function, the $n^{th}$ moment, the median, the mode and the 100$k$-percentage points of the generalized distribution were established. Estimation of the parameters of the distribution through maximum likelihood method was accomplished with the aid of c...
