Power Lindley distribution and associated inference

TL;DR: A new two-parameter power Lindley distribution is introduced and its properties are discussed, which include the shapes of the density and hazard rate functions, the moments, skewness and kurtosis measures, the quantile function, and the limiting distributions of order statistics.

Generalized Lindley Distribution

TL;DR: In this paper, a three-parameter generalization of the Lindley distribution is introduced, which exhibits decreasing, increasing and bathtub hazard rate depending on its parameters, including expo- nential and gamma distributions.

A generalized Lindley distribution

TL;DR: In this paper, a new distribution is proposed for modeling lifetime data, which has better hazard rate properties than the gamma, lognormal and the Weibull distributions, including a real data example is discussed to illustrate its applicability.
Journal ArticleDOI

An extended Lindley distribution

TL;DR: In this article, an extension of the Lindley distribution for lifetime data is proposed. But the authors focus on the failure rate of lifetime data and do not consider the residual lifetime of the data.

Original article: A two-parameter weighted Lindley distribution and its applications to survival data

TL;DR: A two-parameter weighted Lindley distribution is proposed for modeling survival data that has the property that the hazard rate (mean residual life) function exhibits bathtub (upside-down bathtub) or increasing (decreasing) shapes.
