Abstract

This article studies the properties of the Topp–Leone linear exponential distribution. The parameters of the new model are estimated using maximum likelihood estimation, and simulation studies are performed to examine the finite sample properties of the parameters. An application of the model is demonstrated using a real data set. Finally, a bivariate extension of the model is proposed.

A Appendix

The following are the elements of the observed information matrix:

2α2=-nα2,
2αθ=i=1n(2xie-2(βxi22+θxi)1-e-2(βxi22+θxi)),
2αβ=i=1n(xi2e-2(βxi22+θxi)1-e-2(βxi22+θxi)),
2θ2=i=1n(-1(θ+βxi)2)+(α-1)i=1n[-(4xi2e-2(βxi22+θxi)(1-e-2(βxi22+θxi))2)-(4xi2e-2(βxi22+θxi)1-e-2(βxi22+θxi))],
2θβ=i=1n(-xi(θ+βxi)2)+(α-1)i=1n[-(2xi3e-2(βxi22+θxi)(1-e-2(βxi22+θxi))2)-(2xi3e-2(βxi22+θxi)1-e-2(βxi22+θxi))],
2β2=i=1n(-xi2(θ+βxi)2)+(α-1)i=1n[-(xi4e-2(βxi22+θxi)(1-e-2(βxi22+θxi))2)-(xi4e-2(βxi22+θxi)1-e-2(βxi22+θxi))].
