The Odd Moment Exponential Family of Distributions: Its Properties and Applications
Abstract
A new family of continuous distributions called Odd Moment exponential-G family of distributions is proposed. The density and cumulative distribution function are expressed as linear infinite mixtures of exponentiated-G family of the baseline distribution. Some mathematical
properties of this new family such as skewness and kurtosis, asymptotes, shapes, moment generating function, distribution of order statistics and power moments are investigated. The model parameter estimation by employing the method of maximum likelihood is discussed. To check the suitability, the proposed model is compared to its submodels and also with useful lifetime models namely the gamma, exponentiated exponential, exponentiated moment exponential and beta exponential distributions by conducting three data fitting experiments with real-life data sets.

We have provided the online access of all issues and papers to the indexing agencies (as given on journal web site). It’s depend on indexing agencies when, how and what manner they can index or not. Hence, we like to inform that on the basis of earlier indexing, we can’t predict the today or future indexing policy of third party (i.e. indexing agencies) as they have right to discontinue any journal at any time without prior information to the journal. So, please neither sends any question nor expects any answer from us on the behalf of third party i.e. indexing agencies.Hence, we will not issue any certificate or letter for indexing issue. Our role is just to provide the online access to them. So we do properly this and one can visit indexing agencies website to get the authentic information. Also: DOI is paid service which provided by a third party. We never mentioned that we go for this for our any journal. However, journal have no objection if author go directly for this paid DOI service.
