A new method for generating families of continuous distributions

TL;DR: In this article, a new method is proposed for generating families of continuous distributions, where a random variable is used to transform another random variable and the resulting family, the $$T$$¯¯ -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- family of distributions, has a connection with the hazard functions and each generated distribution is considered as a weighted hazard function.
Journal ArticleDOI

The logistic-X family of distributions and its applications

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors introduce a new family of continuous distributions generated from a logistic random variable called the logistic-X family, which can be expressed as a linear combination of exponentiated densities based on the same baseline distribution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Methods for generating families of univariate continuous distributions in the recent decades

TL;DR: In this paper, five general methods of combination and their variations are discussed: (1) method of generating skew distributions, (2) method adding parameters (e.g., exponentiation), (3) beta generated method, (4) transformed-transformer method, and (5) composite method.
Journal ArticleDOI

Weibull-Pareto Distribution and Its Applications

TL;DR: In this paper, a new distribution, namely, Weibull-Pareto distribution, is defined and studied, and various properties of the distribution are obtained, including moments, limiting behavior, and Shannon's entropy.
Journal ArticleDOI

The gamma-normal distribution: Properties and applications

TL;DR: The method of maximum likelihood estimation is proposed for estimating the parameters of the gamma-normal distribution and bounds for the non-central moments are obtained.
