The unit exponentiated half logistic power series (UEHLPS), a family of compound distributions with bounded support, is introduced in this study. This family is produced by compounding the unit exponentiated half logistic and power series distributions. In the UEHLPS class, some interesting compound distributions can be found. We find formulas for the moments, density and distribution functions, limiting behavior, and other UEHLPS properties. Five well-known estimating approaches are used to estimate the parameters of one sub-model, and a simulation study is created. The simulated results show that the maximum product of spacing estimates had lower accuracy measure values than the other estimates. Ultimately, three real data sets from various scientific areas are used to analyze the performance of the new class.

The half-logistic modified Kies exponential (HLMKEx) distribution is a novel three-parameter model that is introduced in the current work to expand the modified Kies exponential distribution and improve its flexibility in modeling real-world data. Due to its versatility, the density function of the HLMKEx distribution offers symmetrical, asymmetrical, unimodal, and reversed-J-shaped, as well as increasing, reversed-J shaped, and upside-down hazard rate forms. An infinite linear representation can be used to represent the HLMKEx density. The HLMKEx model’s fundamental mathematical features are obtained, such as the quantile function, moments, incomplete moments, and moments of residuals. Additionally, some measures of uncertainty as well as stochastic ordering are derived. To estimate its parameters, eight estimation methods are used. With the use of detailed simulation data, we compare the performance of each estimating technique and obtain partial and total ranks for the accuracy measures of absolute bias, mean squared error, and mean absolute relative error. The simulation results demonstrate that, in contrast to other competing distributions, the proposed distribution can actually fit the data more accurately. Two actual data sets are investigated in the field of engineering to demonstrate the adaptability and application of the suggested distribution. The findings demonstrate that, in contrast to other competing distributions, the provided distribution can actually fit the data more accurately.

In this article, we introduce a new extension of the Kumaraswamy (Ku) model, which is called the Kavya Manoharan Kumaraswamy (KMKu) model. The shape forms of the pdf for the KMKu model for various values of parameters are similar to the Ku model. It can be asymmetric, such as bathtub, unimodal, increasing and decreasing. In addition, the shape forms of the hrf for the KMKu model can be bathtub, U-shaped, J-shaped and increasing. Several statistical and computational properties were computed. Four different measures of entropy were studied. The maximum likelihood approach was employed to estimate the parameters for the KMKu model under simple and ranked set sampling. A simulation experiment was conducted in order to calculate the model parameters of the KMKu model utilizing simple and ranked set sampling and show the efficiency of the ranked set sampling more than the simple random sampling. The KMKu has more flexibility than the Ku model and other well-known models, and we proved this using three real-world data sets.

Extensive growth in the number of Internet Of Things (IoT) devices has significantly increased susceptibility to various cyber-attacks and hence emphasized the need for robust intrusion detection systems (IDS) for ensuring IoT network security. While deep learning (DL) methodologies have proven effective in the application of IDS, their success greatly depends on the availability of large datasets and significant computational resources during training. To overcome the limitations associated with this dependence on large datasets and significant computational capacity for training, the current work suggests employing the transfer learning (TL) mechanism by combining Swin Transformers with long short-term memory (LSTM) networks. Utilizing the beneficial properties of Swin Transformers in learning hierarchically structured data combined with the proficiency of LSTM in processing sequential dependencies, the hybrid model generates pre-trained weights in the first phase. These pre-trained weights are further transferred into another instance of the new model for subsequent fine-tuning. Experiments are carried out on several benchmarking datasets, namely NSL-KDD, ToN-IoT, BoTIoT, MQTTIoT, and CICIoT2023, which include both binary and multi-class classification scenarios. The proposed model outperforms state-of-the-art DL models, for example, the Autoencoders, ResNets, CNN, RNN, and LSTM models, and achieved an average of 98.97% in accuracy, of 98.97% in precision, of 99.02% in recall, of 98.97% in F1 score, across all datasets. Experimental results establish that the hybrid approach achieves better detection accuracy and better performance measures compared to the latest state-of-the-art methods, thus proving itself effective in increasing the scalability and adaptability of IDS in IoT.

Entropy is a useful indicator of information content that has been used in a number of applications. The Log‐Logistic (LL) distribution is a probability distribution that is often employed in survival analysis. This paper addresses the problem of estimating multiple entropy metrics for an LL distribution using progressive type II censoring. We derive formulas for six different types of entropy measurements. To obtain the estimators of the proposed entropy measures, the maximum likelihood approach is applied. Approximate confidence intervals are calculated for the entropy metrics under discussion. A numerical evaluation is performed using various censoring methods and sample sizes to characterize the behavior of estimator’s measures using relative biases, related mean squared errors, average interval lengths, and coverage probabilities. Numerical analysis revealed that the accuracy measures improve with sample size, and the suggested entropy estimates approach the genuine values as censoring levels decrease. Finally, an actual dataset was evaluated for demonstration purposes.

A new, flexible claim-size Chen density is derived for modeling asymmetric data (negative and positive) with different types of kurtosis (leptokurtic, mesokurtic and platykurtic). The new function is used for modeling bimodal asymmetric medical data, water resource bimodal asymmetric data and asymmetric negatively skewed insurance-claims payment triangle data. The new density accommodates the “symmetric”, “unimodal right skewed”, “unimodal left skewed”, “bimodal right skewed” and “bimodal left skewed” densities. The new hazard function can be “decreasing–constant–increasing (bathtub)”, “monotonically increasing”, “upside down constant–increasing”, “monotonically decreasing”, “J shape” and “upside down”. Four risk indicators are analyzed under insurance-claims payment triangle data using the proposed distribution. Since the insurance-claims data are a quarterly time series, we analyzed them using the autoregressive regression model AR(1). Future insurance-claims forecasting is very important for insurance companies to avoid uncertainty about big losses that may be produced from future claims.
