Abstract :
We develop a generalized distribution, namely, exponentiated half logistic
log-logistic Weibull distribution. Several structural properties of the distribution including
expansion of density, distribution of order statistics, Rényi entropy, moments,
probability weighted moments, quantile function, generating function, and maximum
likelihood estimates were derived. A simulation study to examine the consistency of
the maximum likelihood estimates was conducted. Finally, real data examples are presented
to illustrate the applicability and usefulness of the proposed model.
