On Bivariate Exponentiated Extended Weibull Family of Distributions
Abstract
In this paper, we introduce a new class of bivariate distributions called the bivariate exponentiated extended Weibull distributions. The model introduced here is of Marshall-Olkin type. This new class of bivariate distributions contains several bivariate lifetime models. Some mathematical properties of the new class of distributions are studied. We provide the joint and conditional density functions, the joint cumulative distribution function and the joint survival function. Special bivariate distributions are investigated in some detail. The maximum likelihood estimators are obtained using the EM algorithm. We illustrate the usefulness of the new class by means of application to two real data sets.
