A New Flexible Univariate and Bivariate Family of Distributions for Unit Interval (0, 1)

We propose a new generator for unit interval which is used to establish univariate and bivariate families of distributions. The univariate family can serve as an alternate to the Kumaraswamy-G univariate family proposed earlier by Cordeiro and de-Castro in 2011. Further, the new generator can also b...

description We propose a new generator for unit interval which is used to establish univariate and bivariate families of distributions. The univariate family can serve as an alternate to the Kumaraswamy-G univariate family proposed earlier by Cordeiro and de-Castro in 2011. Further, the new generator can also be used to develop more alternate univariate and bivariate G-classes such as beta-G, McDonald-G, Topp-Leone-G, Marshall-Olkin-G and Transmuted-G for support (0, 1). Some structural properties of the univariate family are derived and the estimation of parameters is dealt. The properties of a special model of this new univariate family called a New Kumaraswamy-Weibull (NKwW) distribution are obtained and parameter estimation is considered. A Monte Carlo simulation is reported to assess NKwW model parameters. The bivariate extension of the family is proposed and the estimation of parameters is described. The simulation study is also conducted for bivariate model. Finally, the usefulness of the univariate NKwW model is illustrated empirically by means of three real-life data sets on Air Conditioned Failures, Flood and Breaking Strength of Fibers, and one real-life data on UEFA Champion’s League for bivariate model.
