A Class of Lindley and Weibull Distributions
القرني, سعيد . 2016
In this paper, we introduce a class of Lindley and Weibull distributions (LW) that are useful for modeling lifetime data with a comprehensive mathematical treatment. The new class of generated distributions includes some well-known distributions, such as exponential, gamma, Weibull, Lindley, inverse gamma, inverse Weibull, inverse Lindley, and others. We provide closed-form expressions for the density, cumulative distribution, survival function, hazard rate function, moments, moments generating function, quantile, and stochastic orderings. Moreover, we discuss maximum likelihood estimation and the algorithm for computing the parameters estimates. Some sub models are discussed as an illustration with real data sets to show the flexibility of this class.
This paper proposes the new three-parameter type I half-logistic inverse Weibull (TIHLIW) distribution which generalizes the inverse Weibull model. The density function of the TIHLIW can be…
In this paper, a new flexible lifetime distribution is introduced by compounding the power Lindley and geometric distributions, called power Lindley geometric distribution (PLG). The proposed…
In this paper, we introduce a new generalization of a class of inverse Lindley distributions called the generalized inverse Lindley power series (GILPS) distribution. This class of distributions…
