Abstract:A new parameter is introduced to extend the geometric distribution using Azzalini's method. Several important structural properties of the proposed two-parameter extended geometric distribution are investigated. Characterizations including for the geometric distribution, in terms of the proposed model, are established. Maximum likelihood estimation, method of moment estimation and relative frequency based estimation of the parameters are discussed in detail. The likelihood ratio test regarding relevance of the… Show more
