An extended Rayleigh model: Properties, regression and COVID-19 application

Methodology 2022-04-12 v1

Abstract

We define a four-parameter extended Rayleigh distribution, and obtain several mathematical properties including a stochastic representation. We construct a regression from the new distribution. The estimation is done by maximum likelihood. The utility of the new models is proved in two real applications.
