Abstract

The univariate logistic distribution and its properties and applications have been studied quite extensively in the literature. Some generalizations as well as multivariate extensions of it have also been proposed for greater flexibility in modeling univariate and multivariate data. In this paper, we construct three different types of generalized bivariate logistic type distributions through conditional specification, and discuss some of their properties. Finally, we use a data set to fit the proposed models for the purpose of illustration.
