General results for the Marshall and Olkin’s family of distributions
نویسندگان
چکیده
Abstract Marshall and Olkin (1997) introduced an interesting method of adding a parameter to a wellestablished distribution. However, they did not investigate general mathematical properties of their family of distributions. We provide for this family of distributions general expansions for the density function, explicit expressions for the moments and moments of the order statistics. Several especial models are investigated. We discuss estimation of the model parameters. An application to a real data set is presented for illustrative purposes.

Characterizations of Certain Marshall-Olkin Generalized Distributions
Several characterizations of Marshall-Olkin generalized distributions, introduced by Gui (2013) and by Al-Saiari et al. (2014) are presented. These characterizations are based on: (i) a simple relationship between two truncated moments ; (ii) the hazard function.
متن کاملEstimation in Simple Step-Stress Model for the Marshall-Olkin Generalized Exponential Distribution under Type-I Censoring
This paper considers the simple step-stress model from the Marshall-Olkin generalized exponential distribution when there is time constraint on the duration of the experiment. The maximum likelihood equations for estimating the parameters assuming a cumulative exposure model with lifetimes as the distributed Marshall Olkin generalized exponential are derived. The likelihood equations do not lea...
متن کاملMultivariate Survival Data With Censoring
We define a new class of models for multivariate survival data, in continuous time, based on a number of cumulative hazard functions, along the lines of our family of models for correlated survival data in discrete time (Gross and Huber, 2000, 2002). This family is an alternative to frailty and copula models. We establish some properties of our family and compare it to Clayton’s and Marshall-Ol...
متن کاملThe Family of Scale-Mixture of Skew-Normal Distributions and Its Application in Bayesian Nonlinear Regression Models
In previous studies on fitting non-linear regression models with the symmetric structure the normality is usually assumed in the analysis of data. This choice may be inappropriate when the distribution of residual terms is asymmetric. Recently, the family of scale-mixture of skew-normal distributions is the main concern of many researchers. This family includes several skewed and heavy-tailed d...
متن کاملThe Weighted Exponentiated Family of Distributions: Properties, Applications and Characterizations
In this paper a new method of introducing an additional parameter to a continuous distribution is proposed, which leads to a new class of distributions, called the weighted exponentiated family. A special sub-model is discussed. General expressions for some of the mathematical properties of this class such as the moments, quantile function, generating function and order statistics are derived;...
