We use Generalized Beta Prime distribution, also known as GB2, for fitting response time distributions. This distribution, characterized by one scale and three shape parameters, is incredibly flexible in that it can mimic behavior of many…

The beta model is the most important distribution for fitting data with the unit interval. However, the beta distribution is not suitable to model bimodal unit interval data. In this paper, we propose a bimodal beta distribution constructed…

In this paper, a new three-parameter lifetime distribution is introduced and many of its standard properties are discussed. These include shape of the probability density function, hazard rate function and its shape, quantile function,…

Discrete data are collected in many application areas and are often characterised by highly skewed and power-lawlike distributions. An example of this, which is considered in this paper, is the number of visits to a specialist, often taken…

The Weibull distribution is a very applicable model for the lifetime data. For inference about two Weibull distributions using records, the shape parameters of the distributions are usually considered equal. However, there is not an…

In this paper, we propose a reduced version of the new modified Weibull (NMW) distribution due to Almalki and Yuan \cite{meNMW} in order to avoid some estimation problems. The number of parameters in the NMW distribution is five. The number…

Many generalised distributions exist for modelling data with vastly diverse characteristics. However, very few of these generalisations of the normal distribution have shape parameters with clear roles that determine, for instance, skewness…
