Abstract

This paper introduces a two-parameters generator of continuous statistical probability distributions called the Alpha Power Rayleigh-G (APRAY-G) family, some statistical properties of the family of distributions were derived, and we introduced a two-submodels of the generator. We estimate the parameters of the models based on the method of maximum likelihood estimation and explored simulation studies based on the introduced submodels. We observed that the biasedness and root mean square errors decrease as the sample size becomes large. We examined the applications of the models based on real-life data sets. We compared the obtained results with some existing probability distribution models. The results showed that the proposed models gave a better fitness to the data under investigation.
