Abstract
In this paper a Poisson mixture of Adya distribution called Poisson-Adya distribution has been suggested. The expressions of statistical constants including coefficients of variation, skewness, kurtosis and index of dispersion have been obtained and their behavior for varying values of parameter has been studied. It is observed that the obtained distribution is unimodal, has increasing hazard rate and over-dispersed. Maximum likelihood estimation and method of moment have been discussed for estimating parameter. Finally, the goodness of fit of the proposed distribution and its comparison with Poisson and Poisson-Lindley distributions has been given.
