A New Class Of Generalized Power Lindley Distribution With Applications To Lifetime Data, Broderick O. Oluyede, Tiantian Yang, Boikanyo Makubate

Department of Mathematical Sciences Faculty Publications

In this paper, a new class of generalized distribution called the Kumaraswamy Power Lindley (KPL) distribution is proposed and studied. This class of distributions contains the Kumaraswamy Lindley (KL), exponentiated power Lindley (EPL), power Lindley (PL), generalized or exponentiated Lindley (GL), and Lindley (L) distributions as special cases. Series expansion of the density is obtained. Statistical properties of this class of distributions, including hazard function, reverse hazard function, monotonicity property, shapes, moments, reliability, quantile function, mean deviations, Bonferroni and Lorenz curves, entropy and Fisher information are derived. Method of maximum likelihood is used to estimate the parameters of this new …

The Beta Lindley-Poisson Distribution With Applications, Broderick O. Oluyede, Gayan Warahena-Liyanage, Mavis Pararai

Department of Mathematical Sciences Faculty Publications

The beta Lindley-Poisson (BLP) distribution which is an extension of the Lindley-Poisson Distribution is introduced and its properties are explored. This new distribution represents a more flexible model for the lifetime data. Some statistical properties of the proposed distribution including the expansion of the density function, hazard rate function, moments and moment generating function, skewness and kurtosis are explored. Renyi entropy and the distribution of the order statistics are given. The maximum likelihood estimation technique is used to estimate the model parameters and finally applications of the model to real data sets are presented for the illustration of the usefulness …
