Abstract

The paper addresses a new four-parameter probability distribution called the Exponentiated Exponential Burr XII or abbreviated as EE-BXII. We derive various statistical properties in addition to the parameter estimation, moments, and asymptotic confidence bounds. We estimate the precision of the maximum likelihood estimators via a simulation study. Furthermore, the utility of the proposed distribution is evaluated by using two lifetime data sets and the results are compared with other existing probability distributions. The results clarify that the proposed distribution provides a better fit to these data sets as compared to the existing probability distributions.
