Exploring the New Exponentiated Harris-G Family of Distributions and Its Applications

Abstract

This paper introduces a new family of distributions called exponentiated Harris-G. This new distribution is a weighted distribution of the well established exponentiated-G distributions. The model allows for easy derivation of statistical properties based on the exponentiated-G distribution. Several statistical properties for the new model were derived. The paper considered different parameter estimation techniques and the maximum likelihood estimation technique emerged as the best technique. This was evaluated via Monte Carlo simulation studies of the proposed family. Estimation techniques were ranked based on the lowest values of the root mean square error and average bias. The proposed model showed enhanced flexibility in data modeling when compared to some selected competing models. This was demonstrated through application of the special case to two real-world datasets.
