Abstract
|
A new distribution called Generalized Odd Fréchet (GOF) distribution is presented and its
properties explored. Some structural properties of the proposed distribution, including the
shapes of the hazard rate function, moments, conditional moments, moment generating func-
tion, skewness, and kurtosis are presented. Mean deviations, Lorenz and Bonferroni curves,
Rényi entropy, and the distribution of order statistics are given. The maximum likelihood
estimation technique is used to estimate the model parameters, and finally applications of the
model to a real data set are presented to illustrate the usefulness of the proposed distribution.
