Family of Distributions Derived from Whittaker Function

Family of Distributions Derived from Whittaker Function

In this paper, we introduce a general family of distributions based on Whittaker function. The properties of obtained distributions, moments, ordering, percentiles, and unimodality are studied. The distributions’ parameters are estimated using methods of moments and maximum likelihood. Furthermore,...
