“…The motivation is to give a parametric fit for real data sets where the underlying failure rates, arising on a latent competing risk problem base, present monotone shapes (nonconstant hazard rates). The proposed distributions are introduced as extensions of the exponential distribution, following Adamidis & Loukas (1998) and Kuş (2007), by compounding some useful lifetime and truncated discrete distributions (for review, see Barreto-Souza & Cribari-Neto (2009), Chahkandi & Ganjali (2009), Silva et al (2010), Barreto-Souza et al (2011), Cancho et al (2011), Louzada-Neto et al (2011), , Hemmati et al (2011), Nadarajah et al (2013), Bakouch et al (2014), and others). The genesis is stated on competing risk scenarios in presence of latent risks, i.e.…”
