The Beta Generalized Inverse Weibull Distribution

Abstract: The beta generalized inverse Weibull distribution (BGIW) is suggested in this paper. The mathematical properties of the BGIW distribution are provided and the expression for the moment generating function is derived. Also, the analytical shapes of the corresponding probability density function, reliability function, hazard rate function, and mode are derived with graphical illustrations. Expressions for the r-th positive and negative moments are calculated and the variation of the skewness and kurtosis measure… Show more

“…We shall compare the fit of the proposed BGIRD (and its sub-model namely: BIRD) with several other competitive models namely: the beta generalized inverse Weibull distribution (BGIWD) [18], and exponential, Lindley, and Akash distributions [17] with corresponding cumulative distribution functions (for x > 0) as follows…”

“…For many years, researchers have been developing various extensions and modified forms of the inverse Weibull distribution. Recently, [2] introduced an extension of the inverse Weibull distribution called the beta generalized inverse Weibull distribution. [5] defined a three-parameter generalized inverse Weibull distribution with decreasing and unimodal failure rate.…”

“…The IWD has been further studied by Calabria and Pulcini (1990), Khan, Pasha and Pasha (2008), Pawlas and Szynal (2000), Mahmoud, Sultan and Amer (2003) and Elshahat and Ismail (2014). Certain other re-parametric versions of the IWD are proposed in the literature recently by authors like de Gusmão, Ortega and Cordeiro (2011), Khan and King (2012), Khan (2010) and Baharith, Mousa, Atallah and Elgayar (2014). All these families of distributions possess decreasing/upside down bathtub-shaped hazard rate functions.…”
