A weighted likelihood technique for robust estimation of a multivariate Wrapped Normal distribution for data points scattered on a p-dimensional torus is proposed. The occurrence of outliers in the sample at hand can badly compromise…
Hyperbolic space is increasingly used for hierarchical, tree-like, and network-structured data, but likelihood-based density modeling on hyperbolic space remains relatively limited. This paper develops finite mixture modeling with isotropic…
In information theory, it is of recent interest to study variability of the uncertainty measures. In this regard, the concept of varentropy has been introduced and studied by several authors in recent past. In this communication, we study…
Measure of the weighted cumulative entropy about the predictability of failure time of a system have been introduced in [3]. Referring properties of doubly truncated (interval) cumulative residual and past entropy, several bounds and…
Some new survival distributions are introduced based on a generalised exponential function. This class of distributions includes heavy-tailed generalisations of exponential, Weibull and gamma distributions. Properties of the distributions…
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…

We introduce a general class of continuous univariate distributions with positive support obtained by transforming the class of two-piece distributions. We show that this class of distributions is very flexible, easy to implement, and…
In this paper a new lifetime distribution, which is called the exponentiated Weibull-geometric (EWG) distribution, is introduced. This new distribution obtained by compounding the exponentiated Weibull and geometric distributions. The EWG…
In this paper, we introduce a new distribution generated by Lindley random variable which offers a more flexible model for modelling lifetime data. Various statistical properties like distribution function, survival function, moments,…
In survival or reliability studies, the mean residual life or life expectancy is an important characteristic of the model. Whereas the failure rate can be expressed quite simply in terms of the mean residual life and its derivative, the…
Weibull distribution is widely used in modelling health data. However, its lack of sufficient tail flexibility often results in poor fit in extreme events. We proposed another three-parameter extension of the Weibull distribution with…
In the present work, we provide the asymptotic behavior of the residual-past entropy, of the mean residual-past lifetime distribution and of the residual-past inaccuracy measure. We are interested in these measures of uncertainty in the…
This paper proposes a family of weighted batch means variance estimators, which are computationally efficient and can be conveniently applied in practice. The focus is on Markov chain Monte Carlo simulations and estimation of the asymptotic…
In this article, we proposed a new probability distribution named as power Maxwell distribution (PMaD). It is another extension of Maxwell distribution (MaD) which would lead more flexibility to analyze the data with non-monotone failure…
The purpose of this paper is to introduce, study and analyze a new stochastic order which lies in the framework of the mean residual life and the combination convexity orders. Several preservation properties of the new order under…
In this paper we focus on the study of the monotonicity properties of the residual and the past extropy as well as on some characterization problems. We then apply the derived results to analyze further stochastic aspects of order…
The extropy is a measure of information introduced by Lad et al. (2015) as dual to entropy. As the entropy, it is a shift-independent information measure. We introduce here the notion of weighted extropy, a shift-dependent information…
