A family of lifetime distributions (Q1953808): Difference between revisions

Summary: A four-parameter family of Weibull distributions is introduced as an example of a more general class created along the lines of \textit{A.W. Marshall} and \textit{I. Olkin} [Biometrika 84, No. 3, 641--652 (1997; Zbl 0888.62012)]. Various properties of the distributions are explored and their usefulness in modelling real data is demonstrated using maximum likelihood estimates.
