Abstract

The authors introduce a new generalized distribution called the Marshall-Olkin Lindley-Log-logistic (MOLLLoG) distribution and discuss its distributional properties. The properties include hazard function, quantile function, moments, conditional moments, mean and median deviations, Bonferroni and Lorenz curves, distribution of the order statistics and Rényi entropy. A Monte Carlo simulation study was used to examine the bias, relative bias and mean square error of the maximum likelihood estimators. The betterness of the new distribution compared to other distributions is illustrated by means of two real life datasets.
