In this article, we extensively study a family of distributions using the trigonometric function. We add an extra parameter to the sine transformation family and name it the alpha-sine-G family of distributions. Some important functional forms and properties of the family are provided in a general form. A specific sub-model alpha-sine Weibull of this family is also introduced using the Weibull distribution as a parent distribution and studied deeply. The statistical properties of this new distribution are investigated and intended parameters are estimated using the maximum likelihood, maximum product of spacings, least square, weighted least square, and minimum distance methods. For further justification of these estimates, a simulation experiment is carried out. Two real data sets are analyzed to show the suggested model’s application. The suggested model performed well compares to some existing models considered in the study.

This article discusses the problem of estimation with step stress partially accelerated life tests using Type-II progressively censored samples. The lifetime of items under use condition follows the two-parameters inverted Kumaraswamy distribution. The maximum likelihood estimates for the unknown parameters are computed numerically. Using the property of asymptotic distributions for maximum likelihood estimation, we constructed asymptotic interval estimates. The Bayes procedure is used to calculate estimates of the unknown parameters from symmetrical and asymmetric loss functions. The Bayes estimates cannot be obtained explicitly, therefor the Lindley's approximation and the Markov chain Monte Carlo technique are used to obtaining the Bayes estimates. Furthermore, the highest posterior density credible intervals for the unknown parameters are calculated. An example is presented to illustrate the methods of inference. Finally, a numerical example of March precipitation (in inches) in Minneapolis failure times in the real world is provided to illustrate how the approaches will perform in practice.

We aim in this paper to propose a novel class of distributions that was created by merging the Topp-Leone distribution and the Generated families of Kumaraswamy and Marshall-Olkin. Its cumulative distribution function characterizes it and includes rational and polynomial functions. In particular, the following desirable properties of the new family are presented: Shannon entropy, order statistics, the quantile power series, and several associated measures and functions. Then, using a specific family member identified before, we create a parametric statistical model with the basic distribution being the inverse exponential distribution. Finally, a thorough investigation has been made to implement this new distribution with three data sets: the glass fibers data set, the glass Alumina data set and the hailing times data set. In comparison to six prominent competitors, the new model performs favorably on all statistical tests and criteria that were examined.

We introduce a new two-parameter model related to the inverted Topp–Leone distribution called the power inverted Topp–Leone (PITL) distribution. Major properties of the PITL distribution are stated; including; quantile measures, moments, moment generating function, probability weighted moments, Bonferroni and Lorenz curve, stochastic ordering, incomplete moments, residual life function, and entropy measure. Acceptance sampling plans are developed for the PITL distribution, when the life test is truncated at a pre-specified time. The truncation time is assumed to be the median lifetime of the PITL distribution with pre-specified factors. The minimum sample size necessary to ensure the specified life test is obtained under a given consumer’s risk. Numerical results for given consumer’s risk, parameters of the PITL distribution and the truncation time are obtained. The estimation of the model parameters is argued using maximum likelihood, least squares, weighted least squares, maximum product of spacing and Bayesian methods. A simulation study is confirmed to evaluate and compare the behavior of different estimates. Two real data applications are afforded in order to examine the flexibility of the proposed model compared with some others distributions. The results show that the power inverted Topp–Leone distribution is the best according to the model selection criteria than other competitive models.
