Abstract:

A novel family of distributions called the odd beta prime-G is introduced and studied. Some statistical properties of the proposed odd beta prime-G family are studied. The expressions for the moments, incomplete moments, moment generating function, order statistics, and quantile function are derived. The estimates of the parameters of the new family are obtained using the method of maximum likelihood. Finally, three real data sets are used to illustrate the usefulness and efficiency of the new family.
