摘要
In this paper, we introduce a modification of the Quasi Lindley distribution which has various advantageous properties for the lifetime data. Several fundamental structural properties of the distribution are explored. Its density function can be left-skewed, symmetrical, and right-skewed shapes with various rages of tail-weights and dispersions. The failure rate function of the new dist</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">ribution has the flexibility to be increasing, decreasing, constant, an</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">d bathtub shapes. A simulation study is done to examine the performance of maximum likelihood and moment estimation methods in its unknown parameter estimations based on the asymptotic theory. The potentiality of the new distribution is illustrated by means of applications to the simulated and three real-world data sets.
