This article presents a new technique to generate distributions that have the ability to fit any complex data called the exponentiated exponentiated Weibull-X (EEW-X) family, and the exponentiated exponentiated Weibull exponential (EEWE) distribution is presented as a member of this family. The new distribution’s unknown parameters were calculated by applying the maximum likelihood method. Some statistical properties, such as quantile, Rényi entropy, order statistics, and median are obtained for the proposed distribution. A simulation study was performed for different cases to investigate the estimation method’s performance. Three real datasets have been applied in which the new distribution has shown more flexibility compared to some other distributions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
