Abstract:
A novel two-parameter continuous model titled the entropy-transformed Weibull (ET-W) distribution has been developed via the entropy transformation. A new framework has been investigated and found to meet the criteria of the probability function. By significantly improving the functional shape and having the ability to model the most likely form of the hazard rate function, this novel modification has increased the adaptability of typical model. Some of its core characteristics, such as its statistical and computational features, are simply and clearly presented. To examine the ultimate performance of maximum likelihood estimators during the process of estimating model parameters, a comprehensive simulation analysis has been conducted. The effectiveness of the suggested distribution is illustrated through the modeling of real datasets.

Entropy and the Second Law of Thermodynamics
The relation between entropy and disorder can be illustrated with the example of the phase change of ice to water. In ice, the molecules are located at specific sites giving a solid state, whereas, in a liquid form, these molecules are much freer to move. The molecular arrangement has therefore become more randomized. Although the change in average...
