Abstract:
|
In this work, we introduce a new four-parameter cubic rank transmuted Lomax (CRTL) distribution using the cubic rank transmuted map proposed by Granzatto et al. (2017)). The expressions for several mathematical properties of the proposed model are derived. The method of maximum likelihood is used to estimate the parameters of the distribution. We present the application of the proposed model using the cancer patient data and compare various statistics to show the versatility and fitting of the model.
