In the following article, a new five-parameter distribution, the alpha power exponentiated Weibull-exponential distribution is proposed, based on a newly developed technique. It is of particular interest because the density of this distribution can take various symmetric and asymmetric possible shapes. Moreover, its related hazard function is tractable and showing a great diversity of asymmetrical shaped, including increasing, decreasing, near symmetrical, increasing-decreasing-increasing, increasing-constant-increasing, J-shaped, and reversed J-shaped. Some properties relating to the proposed distribution are provided. The inferential method of maximum likelihood is employed, in order to estimate the model’s unknown parameters, and these estimates are evaluated based on various simulation studies. Moreover, the usefulness of the model is investigated through its application to three real data sets. The results show that the proposed distribution can, in fact, better fit the data, when compared to other competing distributions.
This article presents a new method for generating distributions. This method combines two techniques—the transformed—transformer and alpha power transformation approaches—allowing for tremendous flexibility in the resulting distributions. The new approach is applied to introduce the alpha power Weibull—exponential distribution. The density of this distribution can take asymmetric and near-symmetric shapes. Various asymmetric shapes, such as decreasing, increasing, L-shaped, near-symmetrical, and right-skewed shapes, are observed for the related failure rate function, making it more tractable for many modeling applications. Some significant mathematical features of the suggested distribution are determined. Estimates of the unknown parameters of the proposed distribution are obtained using the maximum likelihood method. Furthermore, some numerical studies were carried out, in order to evaluate the estimation performance. Three practical datasets are considered to analyze the usefulness and flexibility of the introduced distribution. The proposed alpha power Weibull–exponential distribution can outperform other well-known distributions, showing its great adaptability in the context of real data analysis.
In this paper, a new five-parameter model called alpha power exponentiated new Weibull-Pareto distribution is introduced based on a new developing technique. We derived some properties relating to the proposed distribution, including moments, moment generating function, quantile function, mean residual life and mean waiting time, and order statistics of the new model. The model parameters are estimated using the maximum likelihood method. Some simulation studies are performed to investigate the effectiveness of the estimates. Finally, we used three real-life data sets to show the flexibility of the introduced distribution.
