The Generalized Alpha Exponent Power Family of Distributions: Properties and Applications

Abstract

Here, a new method is recommended to characterize a new continuous distribution class, named the generalized alpha exponent power family of distributions (GAEPFDs). A particular sub-model is presented for exemplifying the objective. The basic statistical properties, such as ordinary moments, the probability weighted moments, mode, quantile, order statistics, entropy measures, and moment generating functions, etc., were explored. To gauge the GAEPPRD parameters, the ML technique was utilized. The estimator behaviour was studied by a Monte Carlo simulation study (MCSS). The effectiveness of GAEPFDs was demonstrated observationally through lifetime data. The applications show that GAEPFDs can offer preferable results over other competitive models.
