Abstract
In this study, a new flexible lifetime model called Burr XII moment exponential (BXII-ME) distribution is introduced. We derive some of its mathematical properties including the ordinary moments, conditional moments, reliability measures and characterizations. We employ different estimation methods such as the maximum likelihood, maximum product spacings, least squares, weighted least squares, Cramer-von Mises and Anderson-Darling methods for estimating the model parameters. We perform simulation studies on the basis of the graphical results to see the performance of the above estimators of the BXII-ME distribution. We verify the potentiality of the BXII-ME model via monthly actual taxes revenue and fatigue life applications.
Highlights
Data analysis is imperious in every aspect of statistical analysis
We provide a useful linear representation for the density of X, which can be used to derive some mathematical properties of the Burr XII moment exponential (BXII-moment exponential (ME)) model
We present some of its mathematical properties such as the ordinary moments, the Mellin transform, conditional moments, reliability measures and characterization in this segment
Summary
Data analysis is imperious in every aspect of statistical analysis. The statistical characteristics such as skewness, kurtosis, bimodality, monotonic and non-monotonic failure rates are obtained from datasets. The study is based on the following motivations: (i) to generate distributions with symmetrical, right-skewed, left-skewed, J, reverse-J and bimodal shaped as well as high kurtosis; (ii) to have monotone and non-monotone failure rate function; (iii) to study numerically the descriptive measures for the BXII-ME distribution based on the parameter values; (iv) to derive mathematical properties such as random number generator, sub-models, ordinary moments, conditional moments, reliability measures and characterizations; (v) to perform the simulation study on the basis of the graphical results to see the performance of maximum likelihood, maximum product spacings, least squares, weighted least squares, Cramer-von Mises and Anderson-Darling estimators; (vi) to reveal the potentiality of the BXII-ME model; (vii) to work as the preeminent substitute model and (viii) to deliver a better fit model than the existing models.
