The Weibull--like distributions form a large class of probability distributions that belong to the domain of attraction for the maxima of the Gumbel law. Besides the Weibull distribution, it includes important distributions as the Gamma…
The Kumaraswamy Inverse Weibull distribution has the ability to model failure rates that have unimodal shapes and are quite common in reliability and biological studies. The three-parameter Kumaraswamy Inverse Weibull distribution with…
The linear exponential distribution is a generalization of the exponential and Rayleigh distributions. This distribution is one of the best models to fit data with increasing failure rate (IFR). But it does not provide a reasonable fit for…
We obtain new mathematical properties of the exponentiated odd log-logistic family of distributions, and of its special case named the exponentiated odd log-logistic Weibull, and its log transformed. A new location and scale regression…
In this paper, we consider the problem of estimating an extreme quantile of a Weibull tail-distribution. The new extreme quantile estimator has a reduced bias compared to the more classical ones proposed in the literature. It is based on an…
We propose the notion of sub-Weibull distributions, which are characterised by tails lighter than (or equally light as) the right tail of a Weibull distribution. This novel class generalises the sub-Gaussian and sub-Exponential families to…
The Cauchy-Rayleigh (CR) distribution has been successfully used to describe asymmetric and heavy-tail events from radar imagery. Employing such model to describe lifetime data may then seem attractive, but some drawbacks arise: its…
The heavy-tailed behavior of the generalized extreme-value distribution makes it a popular choice for modeling extreme events such as floods, droughts, heatwaves, wildfires, etc. However, estimating the distribution's parameters using…
The beta Weibull distribution was introduced by Famoye et al. (2005) and studied by these authors. However, they do not give explicit expressions for the moments. We now derive explicit closed form expressions for the cumulative…
In this paper we investigate the estimation of the unknown parameters of a competing risk model based on a Weibull distributed decreasing failure rate and an exponentially distributed constant failure rate, under right censored…
A new lifetime model, named the Modi linear failure rate distribution, is suggested. This flexible model is capable of accommodating a wide range of hazard rate shapes, including decreasing, increasing, bathtub, upside-down bathtub, and…
A random fiber bundle model with a mixed Weibull distribution is studied under the Global Load Sharing (GLS) scheme. The mixed model consists of two sets of fibers. The threshold strength of one set of fibers are randomly chosen from a…
This paper presents a unified and novel estimation framework for the Weibull, Gamma, and Log-normal distributions based on arbitrary-order moment pairs. Traditional estimation techniques, such as Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) and the…
In this paper, we introduce a new two-parameter lifetime distribution, called the exponential-generalized truncated logarithmic (EGTL) distribution, by compounding the exponential and generalized truncated logarithmic distributions. Our…
Fertility plans, measured by the number of planned children, have been found to be affected by education and family background via complex tail dependencies. This challenge was previously met with the use of non-parametric jittering…
Fisheries scientists use regression models to estimate population quantities, such as biomass or abundance, for use in climate, habitat, stock, and ecosystem assessments. However, these models are sensitive to the chosen probability…
We apply the Weibull distribution -- a two-parameter family from extreme-value theory -- as a diagnostic framework for element-wise weight magnitude distributions in transformers. At initialization, i.i.d. Gaussian weights give |w| ~…
We introduce a new set of consistent measures of risks, in terms of the semi-invariants of pdf's, such that the centered moments and the cumulants of the portfolio distribution of returns that put more emphasis on the tail the…
We propose novel goodness-of-fit tests for the Weibull distribution with unknown parameters. These tests are based on an alternative characterizing representation of the Laplace transform related to the density approach in the context of…
The aim of this paper, is to define a bivariate exponentiated generalized linear exponential distribution based on Marshall-Olkin shock model. Statistical and reliability properties of this distribution are discussed. This includes…
