A new statistical model, the New Modified Generalized Inverted Exponential (MGIE) distribution, is introduced. This distribution offers valuable statistical characteristics and parameter estimation methods, demonstrated with real-world data.
Area of Science:
- Statistics
- Probability Theory
- Mathematical Modeling
Background:
- The need for flexible statistical distributions in data analysis.
- Limitations of existing distributions in capturing complex data patterns.
Purpose of the Study:
- To introduce and define a novel three-parameter statistical model: the New Modified Generalized Inverted Exponential (MGIE) distribution.
- To derive key statistical properties of the MGIE distribution, including its quantile function, median, moments, mode, mean deviation, harmonic mean, reliability, hazard and odds functions, and Rényi entropy.
- To investigate parameter estimation for the MGIE distribution using the maximum likelihood estimation method.
Main Methods:
- Theoretical derivation of statistical characteristics for the proposed MGIE distribution.
- Application of the maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) technique for parameter estimation.
- Monte Carlo simulation study to evaluate the performance and behavior of the MGIE distribution's parameters.
- Validation using three real-world data sets.
Main Results:
- The paper successfully defines the New Modified Generalized Inverted Exponential (MGIE) distribution and derives its comprehensive statistical properties.
- Maximum likelihood estimators for the MGIE distribution parameters were obtained.
- Simulation results demonstrated the practical behavior of the MGIE distribution's parameters.
- Application to real data sets confirmed the utility and importance of the proposed MGIE distribution.
Conclusions:
- The New Modified Generalized Inverted Exponential (MGIE) distribution is a statistically sound and flexible model.
- The proposed distribution and its associated estimation methods are effective for analyzing real-world data.
- The MGIE distribution offers a valuable addition to the repertoire of statistical distributions for applied researchers.
