A New Log-location Regression Model with Influence Diagnostics and Residual Analysis

Abstract

A new four-parameter lifetime model called OddLog-Logistic Burr XII distribution, is defined and investigated. Some of itsmathematical properties are derived. Some useful characterization resultsbased on \ the ratio of two truncated moments, based on the hazard functionas well as on the conditional expectation of certain functions of the randomvariable are presented. The maximum likelihood method is used to estimatethe model parameters by means of a graphical Monte Carlo simulation study.Moreover, we introduce a new log-location regression model based on theproposed distribution. The Jackknife estimation method as an alternativemethod is used to estimate the unknown parameters of new regression model. Thegeneralized cook distance and likelihood distance measures are used todetect the possible influential observations. The martingale and modifieddeviance residuals are defined to detect outliers and evaluate the modelassumptions. The potentiality of the new regression model is illustrated bymeans of a real data set.
