Abstract

A new class of statistical distributions called the Type II half-Logistic odd Fréchet-G class is proposed. The new class is a continuation of the unusual Fréchet class. This class is analytically feasible and could be used to evaluate real-world data effectively. The new suggested class of distributions has many new symmetrical and asymmetrical sub-models. We propose new four sub-models from the new class of distributions which are called Type II half-Logistic odd Fréchet exponential distribution, Type II half-Logistic odd Fréchet Rayleigh distribution, Type II half-Logistic odd Fréchet Weibull distribution, and Type II half-Logistic odd Fréchet Lindley distribution. Some statistical features of Type II half-Logistic odd Fréchet-G class such as ordinary moments (ORMs), incomplete moments (INMs), moment generating function (MGEF), residual life (REL), and reversed residual life (RREL) functions, and Rényi entropy (RéE) are derived. Six methods of estimation such as maximum likelihood, least-square, a maximum product of spacing, weighted least square, Cramér-von Mises, and Anderson–Darling are produced to estimate the parameters. To test the six estimation methods’ performance, a simulation study is conducted. Four real-world data sets are utilized to highlight the importance and applicability of the proposed method.

1. Introduction

Today, there is a need for mathematical models required to retrieve all of the information from data and the ability to engage with it and make it usable in engineering, biological study, economics, and environmental sciences, to name a few examples. A lot of generations of academics have so far concentrated their efforts to build larger classes of distributions. The classic strategy consists of adding (parameters) to a scale or shape to the baseline model, also through the use of special functions (beta, gamma, excessive geometry, etc.), which makes the resulting distribution more adaptable, which is useful for understanding the behavior of density shapes and hazard rate shapes, for checking the goodness of fit of proposed distributions, or the flexibility on some important modeling aspects such as mean E(X), variance V(X), distribution tails, skewness (SK), kurtosis (KU), etc. Consequently, new different classes of continuous distributions have been offered, including those produced in the statistical literature listed below. Some well-known classes are the Fréchet class defined in [1], Marshall–Olkin class given in [2], beta-class given in [3], the generalized log-logistic class given in [4], the odd exponentiated half logistic (HL) class given in [5], the generalized odd log-logistic class given in [6], the Type I HL class given in [7], the logistic-X class given in [8], generalized odd log-logistic class given in [9], Kumaraswamy Type I HL class given in [10], the transmuted odd Fréchet ( O F )-class given in [11], extended O F -G class given in [12], transmuted geometric-G [13], odd Perks-G class [14], odd Lindley-G in [15], truncated Cauchy power Weibull-G [16], generalized transmuted-G [17], truncated Cauchy power-G in [18], Burr X-G (BX-G) class [19], odd inverse power generalized Weibull-G [20], Type II exponentiated half-Logistic-G in [21], Topp Leone -G in [22], exponentiated M-G by [23], odd Nadarajah–Haghighi-G in [24], exponentiated truncated inverse Weibull-G in [25], T-X generator proposed in [26], among others.
Several Fréchet classes have been judged successful in a variety of statistical applications in the last years as [27] proposed a four-parameter model named the exponential transmuted Fréchet distribution, which extends the Fréchet distribution. Ref [1] proposed the O F G class of distributions with distribution function (cdf) and density function (pdf), respectively, are follows, for x > 0
G O F r ( x ; θ ) = e G ¯ ( x , φ ) G ( x , φ ) θ ,
and
g O F r ( x ; θ ) = θ g ( x , φ ) 1 G ( x , φ ) θ 1 G ( x , φ ) θ + 1 e G ¯ ( x , φ ) G ( x , φ ) θ ,
where θ > 0 is a shape parameter, G ( x , φ ) and g ( x , φ ) are the pdf and cdf of a baseline continuous distribution with φ as parameter vector, respectively.
The O F G class was successfully considered in various statistical applications over the last few years. This reputation can be explained by its simple and versatile exponential-odd form, with the use of just one additional parameter, very different from the other current families. Ref [28] represented a new class of continuous distributions with an extra scale parameter α > 0 called the Type II HL-G ( T I I H L G ) class. The cdf and pdf of the T I I H L G class of distributions, respectively, are provided by
F ( x ) = 2 G ( x ) α 1 + [ G ( x ) ] α ,
and
f ( x ) = 2 α g ( x ) G ( x ) α 1 1 + G ( x ) α 2 .
The failure (hazard) rate function (hrf) is defined by
τ ( x ) = 2 α g ( x ) G ( x ) α 1 1 G ( x ) 2 α .
In this paper, we discuss a new extension of the odd Fréchet-G class for a given baseline distribution with cdf G ( x , φ ) using the Type II HL generator and this class is called the Type II HL odd Fréchet-G ( T I I H L O F G ) class of distributions. This new suggested class of distributions is very flexible and has many new symmetrical and asymmetrical sub-models. The cdf of ( T I I H L O F G ) class is obtained by inserting Equation (1) in Equation (3), we get
F ( x , α , θ , φ ) = 2 e α G ¯ ( x , φ ) G ( x , φ ) θ 1 + e α G ¯ ( x , φ ) G ( x , φ ) θ , x > 0 .
For each baseline G, the T I I H L O F G cdf is given by Equation (6). The corresponding pdf is
f ( x ; α , θ , φ ) = 2 α θ g ( x , φ ) G ¯ ( x , φ ) θ 1 G ( x , φ ) θ + 1 e α G ¯ ( x , φ ) G ( x , φ ) θ 1 + e α G ¯ ( x , φ ) G ( x , φ ) θ 2 .
The hrf of T I I H L O F G class is provided by
χ ( x ) = 2 α θ g ( x , φ ) G ¯ ( x , φ ) θ 1 e α G ¯ ( x , φ ) G ( x , φ ) θ G ( x , φ ) θ + 1 1 e 2 α G ¯ ( x , φ ) G ( x , φ ) θ .
The T I I H L O F G quantile function (qf) is given below
F 1 ( u ) = Q G ( u ) = G 1 1 1 + 1 α log ( u 2 u ) 1 θ .
The fundamental goal of the article under consideration is to introduce a new class of statistical distributions called the Type II half-Logistic odd Fréchet-G class (TIIHLOF-G for short) as well as to investigate its statistical characteristics. The following points provide sufficient incentive to study the proposed class of distributions. We specify it as follows: (i) the new class of distributions are very flexible and have many new symmetrical and asymmetrical sub-models; (ii) it is remarkable to observe the flexibility of the proposed family with the diverse graphical shapes of probability density functions (pdf) and hazard rate functions (hrf). So, the form analysis of the corresponding pdf and hrf has shown new characteristics, revealing the unseen fitting potential of the TIIHLOF-G; (iii) the new suggested class has a closed form of the quantile function; (iv) six methods of estimation are proposed to assess the behavior of the parameters; (v) the TIIHLOF-G is very flexible and applicable. This ability of the new class is explored using four real-life data sets proving the practical utility of the model being featured.
The substance of the article is arranged as follows: Section 2 presents a linear representation of the T I I H L O F G class density. Four new sub-models are provided in Section 3. Section 4 contains a number of statistical features such as ORMs, INMs, MGEF, REL, and RREL functions, and RéE. In Section 5, different estimation methods of the model parameters are determined. Section 6 shows simulation results. Section 7 investigates three real-world data sets to demonstrate the flexibility and potential of the T I I H L O F G class using the T I I H L O F E x p and T I I H L O F W distributions. Finally, in Section 8, the conclusions are offered.

2. Useful Expansion

Assuming z < 1 and b > 0 be a real non-integer, then the next binomial expansions occur.
( 1 + z ) b = k = 0 ( 1 ) k Γ ( b + k ) k ! Γ ( b ) z k .
Applying Equation (9) to the last term in Equation (7), then
f T I I H L O F G ( x ) = 2 α θ g ( x , φ ) G ¯ ( x , φ ) θ 1 G ( x , φ ) θ + 1 i = 0 ( i + 1 ) e α ( i + 1 ) G ¯ ( x , φ ) G ( x , φ ) θ .
The exponential function’s power series now yields
e α ( i + 1 ) G ¯ ( x , φ ) G ( x , φ ) θ = j = 0 ( 1 ) j α j ( i + 1 ) j j ! G ¯ ( x , φ ) θ j G ( x , φ ) θ j .
Inserting Equation (11) in Equation (10), then
f T I I H L O F G ( x ) = g ( x , φ ) i , j = 0 2 θ ( 1 ) j α j + 1 ( i + 1 ) j + 1 j ! G ¯ ( x , φ ) θ ( j + 1 ) 1 G ( x , φ ) θ ( j + 1 ) + 1 ,
using the generalized binomial expansion to ( 1 G ( x ; φ ) ) θ ( j + 1 ) + 1 ,
( 1 G ( x ; φ ) ) θ ( j + 1 ) + 1 = k = 0 Γ ( θ ( j + 1 ) + k + 1 ) k ! Γ ( θ ( j + 1 ) + 1 ) G ( x ; φ ) k ,
and
( 1 G ( x ; φ ) ) θ ( j + 1 ) + k + 1 = d = 0 ( 1 ) d θ ( j + 1 ) + k + 1 d G ( x ; φ ) d .
The T I I H L O F pdf is an endless combination of exp-G pdfs
f T I I H L O F G ( x ) = d = 0 ϖ d h ( d + 1 ) ( x ) ,
where
ϖ d = i , j , k = 0 2 θ ( 1 ) j + d α j + 1 ( i + 1 ) j + 1 Γ ( θ ( j + 1 ) + k + 1 ) j ! k ! Γ ( θ ( j + 1 ) + 1 ) ( d + 1 ) θ ( j + 1 ) + k + 1 d ,
and h ( d + 1 ) ( x ) = ( d + 1 ) g ( x ) G d ( x ) .

4. Statistical Properties

In this section, we derive some statistical features for the T I I H L O F G class including ORMs, INMs, MGEF, REL, and RREL functions, and RéE.

4.1. Different Types of Moments

The rth ORM of the T I I H L O F G is
μ r / = E ( X r ) = d = 0 ϖ d E ( Z ( d + 1 ) r ) .
Table 1, Table 2 and Table 3 show the numerical values of E ( X ) , E ( X 2 ) , E ( X 3 ) , E ( X 4 ) , Var(X), SK, KU, and coefficient of variation (CV) of the T I I H L O F E x p and T I I H L O F R distributions.

Table 3. Numerical values of E ( X ) , E ( X 2 ) , E ( X 3 ) , E ( X 4 ) , Var(X), SK, KU, and CV of the T I I H L O F L distribution.
The sth INMs of the T I I H L O F G noted by ζ s ( t ) for any real s > 0 , is
ζ s ( t ) = t x s f ( x ) d x = d = 0 ϖ d t x s h ( d + 1 ) ( x ) d x .
The MGEF of the T I I H L O F G is
M X ( t ) = E ( e t X ) = d = 0 ϖ d M ( d + 1 ) ( t ) ,
where M ( d + 1 ) ( t ) is the MGEF of Z ( d + 1 ) .
The rth-order moment of the REL of the T I I H L O F G is
ψ r ( t ) = 1 F ¯ ( t ) t ( x t ) r f ( x ) d x , r 1 = 1 F ¯ ( t ) d = 0 ϖ d * t x r h ( d + 1 ) ( x ) d x ,
where ϖ d * = d = 0 ϖ d m = 0 r r m ( t ) r m . The rth-order moment of the RREL of the T I I H L O F G is
m r ( t ) = 1 F ( t ) 0 t ( t x ) r f ( x ) d x , r 1 = 1 F ( t ) d = 0 ϖ d * 0 t x r h ( d + 1 ) ( x ) d x ,

4.2. Rényi Entropy

The RéE of the T I I H L O F G is given below
I R ( ρ ) = 1 1 ρ log f ρ ( x ) d x , ρ > 0 , ρ 1 .
Employing Equation (9) and the same manner of the beneficial expansion of Equation (15), we obtain, after a little simplification,
f ρ ( x ) = d = 0 η d g ( x ) ρ G ( x ) d ,
where
η d = i , k , m = 0 ( 1 ) k + m + d α i + ρ k k ! 2 ρ i θ ( ρ + k ) ρ m θ ( ρ + k ) + m ρ d .
Thus the RéE of T I I H L O F G class is given below
I R ( ρ ) = 1 1 ρ log d = 0 η d g ( x ) ρ G ( x ) d d x .

5. Estimation Methods

To evaluate the estimation problem of the T I I H L O F G family parameters, this part uses six estimate methods: maximum likelihood, least-square, a maximum product of spacing, weighted least square, Cramér-von Mises, and Anderson–Darling. For more examples see [29,30,31,32,33].

5.1. Method of Maximum Likelihood Estimation

Suppose x 1 , , x n represent a random sample of size n from the T I I H L O F G class having parameters α , θ and φ . Consider Ψ = ( α , θ , φ ) T be a p × 1 parameter vector. The log-likelihood (LL) function is defined as follows:
L n = n log ( 2 α ) + n log ( θ ) + i = 1 n log g ( x i ; φ ) + ( θ 1 ) i = 1 n log G ¯ ( x i ; φ ) ( θ + 1 ) i = 1 n log ( G ( x i ; φ ) ) α i = 1 n d i θ 2 i = 1 n log 1 + e α d i θ ,
where d i = G ¯ ( x i ; φ ) G ( x i ; φ ) . The components of score vector U n ( Ψ ) = L n Ψ = L n α , L n θ , L n φ k are given below
U α = L n α = n α i = 1 n d i θ + 2 i = 1 n d i θ e α d i θ 1 + e α d i θ ,
U θ = L n θ = n θ + i = 1 n log G ¯ ( x i ; φ ) i = 1 n log ( G ( x i ; φ ) ) α i = 1 n d i θ log ( d i ) + 2 i = 1 n α d i θ log ( d i ) e α d i θ 1 + e α d i t h e t a ,
and
U φ k = L n φ k = i = 1 n g ( x i ; φ ) g ( x i ; φ ) + ( θ 1 ) i = 1 n G ( x i ; φ ) G ( x i ; φ ) ( θ + 1 ) i = 1 n G ¯ ( x i ; φ ) G ¯ ( x i ; φ ) α θ i = 1 n d i θ 1 d i φ k 2 i = 1 n α θ d i θ 1 e α d i θ 1 + e α d i θ d i φ k ,
where g ( x i ; φ ) = g ( x i ; φ ) φ k , G ( x i ; φ ) = G ( x i ; φ ) φ k , G ¯ ( x i ; φ ) = G ¯ ( x i ; φ ) φ k .

5.2. Ordinary Least Squares and Weighted Least Squares Methods

The methods of ordinary least squares (OLS) and weighted least squares (WLS) are used to estimate the parameters of diverse distributions. Let x ( 1 ) < < x ( n ) be a random sample with the Ψ = ( α , θ , φ ) T parameters from the T I I H L O F G class having parameters. OLS estimators (OLSE) and WLS estimators (WLSE) of the Ψ = ( α , θ , φ ) T distribution parameters of T I I H L O F G can be obtained by minimizing the following:
V ( Ψ ) = i = 1 n υ i 2 e α G ¯ ( x ( i ) , φ ) G ( x ( i ) , φ ) θ 1 + e α G ¯ ( x ( i ) , φ ) G ( x ( i ) , φ ) θ 2
υ i = 1 for OLSE and υ i = ( n + 1 ) 2 ( n + 2 ) [ i ( n I + 1 ) ] for WLSE with respect to α , θ , and φ . Furthermore, by resolving the nonlinear equations, the OLSE and WLSE with respect to α , θ , and φ .

5.3. Maximum Product of Spacings Method

If x ( 1 ) < < x ( n ) is a random sample of the size n, you can describe the uniform spacing of the T I I H L O F G family as:
D i ( Ψ ) = F ( x ( i ) , Ψ ) F ( x ( i 1 ) , Ψ ) ; i = 1 , , n + 1
where D i ( Ψ ) denotes to the uniform spacings, F ( x ( 0 ) , Ψ ) = 0 , F ( x ( n + 1 ) , Ψ ) = 1 and i = 1 n + 1 D i ( Ψ ) = 1 . The maximum product of spacing (MPS) estimators (MPSE) of the T I I H L O F G family parameters can be obtained by maximizing
G ( Ψ ) = 1 n + 1 i = 1 n + 1 ln 2 e α G ¯ ( x ( i ) , φ ) G ( x ( i ) , φ ) θ 1 + e α G ¯ ( x ( i ) , φ ) G ( x ( i ) , φ ) θ 2 2 e α G ¯ ( x ( i 1 ) , φ ) G ( x ( i 1 ) , φ ) θ 1 + e α G ¯ ( x ( i 1 ) , φ ) G ( x ( i 1 ) , φ ) θ 2
with respect to α , θ , and φ . Further, the MPSE of the T I I H L O F G family can also be obtained by solving nonlinear equation of derivatives of G ( Ψ ) with respect to α , θ , and φ .

5.4. Cramér-von-Mises Method

In Cramér–von-Mises (CVM), we obtain the T I I H L O F G family by minimizing the following function with respect to α , θ , and φ ; the CVM estimators (CVME) of the T I I H L O F G family parameters α , θ , and φ are obtained.
C ( Ψ ) = 1 12 + i = 1 n 2 e α G ¯ ( x ( i ) , φ ) G ( x ( i ) , φ ) θ 1 + e α G ¯ ( x ( i ) , φ ) G ( x ( i ) , φ ) θ 2 2 i 1 2 n 2
In addition, we resolve the nonlinear equations of derivatives of C ( Ψ ) with respect to α , θ , and φ .

5.5. Anderson-Darling Method

In Anderson–Darling (AD), other forms of minimum distance estimators are the AD estimators (ADE). The ADE of the parameters of the T I I H L O F G family is acquired by minimizing
A ( Ψ ) = n 1 n i = 1 n ( 2 i 1 ) ln 2 e α G ¯ ( x ( i ) , φ ) G ( x ( i ) , φ ) θ 1 + e α G ¯ ( x ( i ) , φ ) G ( x ( i ) , φ ) θ 2 ln 1 2 e α G ¯ ( x ( n + 1 i ) , φ ) G ( x ( n + 1 i ) , φ ) θ 1 + e α G ¯ ( x ( n + 1 i ) , φ ) G ( x ( n + 1 i ) , φ ) θ 2 2
for α , θ , and φ , respectively. It is also possible to obtain the ADE by resolving the nonlinear equations of derivatives of A ( Ψ ) with respect to α , θ , and φ .

6. Numerical Outcomes

In this section, Monte Carlo simulations are run to evaluate the correctness and consistency of the new class’s six estimation methods. For the sake of example, the simulations are run with the estimators of the T I I H L O F W distribution’s parameters. The simulation replication is taken as N = 1000 and samples of sizes n = 50 , 100 and 150 are generated by using the inverse transformation,
x i = 1 λ log 1 1 1 + [ 1 α log ( U 2 U ) ] 1 θ 1 μ , i = 1 , 2 , , n ,
where U is a uniform distribution on ( 0 , 1 ) . The numerical outcomes are evaluated depending on the estimated relative biases (RB) and mean square errors (MSE). Table 4, shows the estimated RB and the MSE for the estimators of the parameters. Set four arbitrarily true values of ( α , θ , λ and μ ) such as Case I: ( α = 0.5 ; θ = 0.5 ; λ = 0.5 ; μ = 0.5 ), Case II: ( α = 1.5 ; θ = 1.5 ; λ = 0.5 ; μ = 2 ), Case III: ( α = 3 ; θ = 1.5 ; λ = 3 ; μ = 2 ), and Case IV: ( α = 3 ; θ = 1.5 ; λ = 3 ; μ = 0.5 ).
Table 4. The MLE, OLS, WLS, MPS, CVM, and AD estimated RB and MSE of the T I I H L O F W distribution.
Extensive computations were carried out using the R statistical programming language software, with the most useful statistical package being the “stats” package, which used the conjugate-gradient maximization algorithm.
From Table 4, we are able to make the following observations. The performances of the proposed estimates of α , θ , λ , and μ in terms of their RB and MSE become better as n increases, as expected, where the results revealed that as the sample size increases, RB and MSE decrease. These findings clearly demonstrate the estimation methods estimators’ accuracy and consistency. As a result, the six estimation methods approach performs well in estimating the parameters of the T I I H L O F W distribution. By the results of Table 4 and Figure 5, we show the OLS method and CVM method of estimation are better than other methods.

7. Applications

Here, we provide three applications to demonstrate the adaptability of the new recommended family. Some measures of goodness of fit are used to illustrate the flexibility of the TIIHLOF-G: the values of negative LL function (−LL), KAINC (Akaike Information Criterion (INC) ), KCAINC (Akaike INC with correction), KBINC (Bayesian INC), and KHQINC (Hannon–Quinn INC) are computed for all competitive models in order to verify which distribution fits the data more closely. The best distribution has the lowest numerical values of −LL, KAINC, KCAINC, KBINC, and KHQINC.

7.1. The Biomedical Data Set

The set of data just on relief times of 20 patients who received an analgesic (Gross and Clark, 1975) is 1.50, 1.20, 2.30, 1.80, 2.20, 1.70, 1.10, 4.10, 1.80, 1.60, 1.40, 1.40, 3.00, 1.70, 1.30, 1.60, 1.70, 1.90, 2.70, 2.00.
Throughout this subsection, we apply the TIIHLOFExp model to a real-world data set to assess its adaptability. To compare the TIIHLOFExp model to the other ten fitted distributions, one, two, three, four, and five parameters are employed. We compare the TIIHLOFExp distribution with the beta transmuted Weibull (BTW), Type I half-Logistic inverse power Ailamujia (TIHLIPA), McDonald log-logistic (McLL), Marshall–Olkin exponential (M-OExp), McDonald Weibull (McW), Burr X-Ex (BrXExp), transmuted exponentiated Chen (TEC), Kumaraswamy Ex (KwExp), generalized Marshall–Olkin Ex (GM-OExp), transmuted complementary Weibull-geometric (TCWG), beta Ex (BExp), Kumaraswamy Marshall–Olkin Ex (KwM-OExp), transmuted Chen (TC), Ailamujia (A), inverse Ailamujia (IA), Exp, beta Lomax (BL), gamma-Chen (GaC), Chen (C), Weibull Lomax (WL), Kumaraswamy Chen (KwC), odd log-logistic Weibull (OLL-W), beta Weibull (BW), beta-Chen (BC), Weibull (W), and Marshall–Olkin Chen (M-OC) models. All of these competitive models are mentioned in Al-Moisheer and Alotaibi (2022).
The parameter estimates and the numerical value of negative LL are presented in Table 5. Additionally, the numerical values of KAINC, KCAINC, KBINC, and KHQINC statistics for the biomedical data are presented in Table 6.

8. Conclusions and Summary

We presented a new class of continuous distributions entitled the Type II half-Logistic odd Fréchet-G class in this work. The identifiability of the proposed model was proved and also studied its relationship with other families of distributions. Some statistical properties such as ORMs, INMs, MGEF, REL, RREL, and entropy are derived. The estimates of the parameters of the new model are estimated using the ML method. A simulation outcome was conducted to check the performance of the MLE method. Using four real-life data sets we illustrated the flexibility of the TIIHLOFExp and TIIHLOFW models. In our future works, the new suggested class of distributions will be used to generate more new statistical models, the statistical features of which will be explored. We also intend to study the statistical inferences of new models generated using the TIIHLOF-G class.
