Abstract
The Truncated Cauchy Power Weibull-G class is presented as a new family of distributions. Unique models for this family are presented in this paper. The statistical aspects of the family are explored, including the expansion of the density function, moments, incomplete moments (IMOs), residual life and reversed residual life functions, and entropy. The maximum likelihood (ML) and Bayesian estimations are developed based on the Type-II censored sample. The properties of Bayes estimators of the parameters are studied under different loss functions (squared error loss function and LINEX loss function). To create Markov-chain Monte Carlo samples from the posterior density, the Metropolis–Hasting technique was used with posterior density. Using non-informative and informative priors, a full simulation technique was carried out. The maximum likelihood estimator was compared to the Bayesian estimators using Monte Carlo simulation. To compare the performances of the suggested estimators, a simulation study was carried out. Real-world data sets, such as strength measured in GPA for single carbon fibers and impregnated 1000-carbon fiber tows, maximum stress per cycle at 31,000 psi, and COVID-19 data were used to demonstrate the relevance and flexibility of the suggested method. The suggested models are then compared to comparable models such as the Marshall–Olkin alpha power exponential, the extended odd Weibull exponential, the Weibull–Rayleigh, the Weibull–Lomax, and the exponential Lomax distributions.

1. Introduction
In recent years, many authors have made a great effort to construct new families to extend existing well-known distributions and provide flexible classes to model data in various fields such as medical sciences and environmental, demographic, actuarial, and economic studies. Many generalized families were generated and extended to explain various phenomena in real data. Some examples of these families are beta-generated [1], gamma-generated [2], generalized Kumaraswamy [3], Marshall–Olkin alpha power-G [4], and odd Lomax-G [5], Type II half logistic-G in [6], transmuted odd Fréchet-G in [7], Type II exponentiated half logistic-G in [8], exponentiated M-G by [9], exponentiated truncated inverse Weibull-G in [10] among others.
A new wider family of distributions, called the odd Weibull-G (OW-G) family was created by [11]. The cumulative distribution function (CDF) and the corresponding probability density function (PDF) are
and
where is a shape parameter and is the vector of parameters of the parent distributions, and are the CDF and PDF of a baseline continuous distribution with as parameter vector, respectively.
Establishing new distributions is a hot topic in contemporary research. It offers more flexible distributions capable of modelling complicated data structures.
The Cauchy distribution is symmetric and has a very heavy tail, it is used in many applications such as econometrics, biological, spectroscopy, engineering studies, and theory of reliability. Many authors have shown the different aspects of generalization and extension of Cauchy distribution, for example, [12] provided a truncated Cauchy distribution, [13] introduced a Kumaraswamy–half-Cauchy distribution, and [14] presented the power-Cauchy negative-binomial distribution.
Recently, a new class called the truncated Cauchy power-G (TCP-G) class was proposed by [15]. The CDF and PDF of the TCP-G class, respectively, are proposed below:
and
where is a shape parameter, and are the CDF and PDF of a baseline continuous distribution with as parameter vector, respectively.
The hazard rate function (hr) is
where is the reliability function.
The main objective of this paper is:
- To present a new, wider, and flexible, family of distributions based on the W–G family and TCP family.
- The PDF of submodels of the suggested family can be decreasing, unimodal, right skewness, and symmetrically shaped. Additionally, the hazard function can be unimodal, U-shaped, J-shaped, increasing, decreasing, and constant.
- To investigate some of its statistical features, such as the quantile function, moments, incomplete moments and Rényi entropy.
- To discuss the statistical inference of the TCPW-G family by using the ML and Bayesian approaches.
- To conduct a simulation study to demonstrate the behavior of the parameters model.
- To provide better fits than some known models with favorable results for the TCPWE, TCPWR, and TCPWL models.
This family called the Truncated Cauchy Power Weibull-G (TCPW-G) family of distributions, which is created by inserting (1) into (3), with CDF and PDF, respectively, provided by
and
We will denote a random variable with PDF (7) by The reliability and hazard rate functions for the family are, respectively, given by and .
The outline for this paper is as follows. Section 2 includes a valuable extension of the TCPW density as well as three sub-models. Section 3 investigates the basic statistical properties of the TCPW-G family. In Section 4, the family’s unknown parameters are estimated using Bayesian and non-Bayesian approaches. Section investigates Type-II censoring techniques. In Section 6, Monte Carlo simulation is used to compare the MLE and Bayesian parameters of the TCPWE. In Section 7, we present two real-world examples to show the versatility of the TCPW-G family.
2. Expansion and Sub-Models
In this section, we look at various helpful expansion functions that are based on the generalized binomial series. If and are real non-integers, with the accompanying power series:
and
Applying (8) to the last term in (7), it becomes
In addition, using (9) in (10), the TCPW-G density can be written as
and by expanding in a power series of the exponential function, we can write
If we insert the above term in (11), we have
and if the power series is applied into (12), the density may be written as an endless linear combination of exponentiated-G (Exp-G) PDFs
where is the Exp-G PDF with power parameter α and
Thus, Equation (13) shows that the TCPW-G density is a mixture of the Exp-G densities with the parameter Consequently, we can derive the statistical properties of the TCPW-G family from those of Exp-G. Similarly, the CDF TCPW families can also be represented as a linear combination as follows:
where is the Exp-G CDF with power parameter .
2.1. Some Special Models of the TCPW-G Family
Among the many different distributions arising from the TCPW-G family of distributions, we now present three special cases using classic distributions as baselines.
2.1.1. Truncated Cauchy Power Weibull Lomax (TCPWL) Distribution
The TCPW family has a Lomax distribution as the baseline distribution, i.e., with and the CDF and PDF of TCPWL distribution of
and
where are two shape parameters.
2.1.2. Truncated Cauchy Power Weibull Exponential (TCPWE) Distribution
The TCPW family has an exponential distribution as the baseline distribution, i.e., with The CDF and the PDF of the TCPWE model are provided through
and
where is a scale parameter.
2.1.3. Truncated Cauchy Power Weibull Rayleigh (TCPWR) Distribution
The TCPW family has a Rayleigh distribution as the baseline distribution; i.e., it has . The CDF and the PDF of the TCPWR model are provided through
and
where is a scale parameter.
From the Figure 1, Figure 2 and Figure 3 we can note the PDF of TCPWL, TCPWE, and TCPWR can be decreasing, unimodal, right skewness and symmetric shaped. Additionally, the hazard function can be unimodal, U-shaped, J-shaped, increasing, decreasing, and constant.

3. Statistical Features
In this section, we will discuss some statistical features of the TCPW class of distributions.
3.1. Quantile Function
By inverting (6), we obtain the TCPW quantile function (QF), say, , as follows:
where denotes the function corresponding to . is characterized by the non-linear equation , , where represents the quantile function for any parent distributions .

3.2. Moments
This sub-section derives the ordinary-moment and moment-generating functions of the family. The skewness, kurtosis, and expected lifetime of a device can be obtained from the moments.
3.2.1. Ordinary Moments
Let be a random variable to have the Exp-G PDF with the power parameter The of the TCPW class of distributions can be determined from (13) as
For the Exp-G distribution with power parameter can be proposed by
where .
We have now shown two formulas for the moment generating function. From Equation (13), we may obtain the first of the following formulas:
where is the moment generating function of . Consequently, we can easily calculate from the Exp-G generating function. The second formula for the moment generating function of the TCPW class of distributions is based on the baseline quantile function as
where
3.2.2. Conditional Moments
Incomplete moments are commonly used to describe the Bonferroni and Lorenz curves, which are both essential in many domains such as reliability theory, finance, economics, and demography. The incomplete moments of X denoted by for any real is defined from (13) as
where and can be calculated numerically.
The mean deviations provide essential information on population characteristics and have also been used in income fields and economics. If has the TCPW family of distribution, the mean deviations about the mean and the mean deviations about the median are defined by
and
respectively, where is the first complete moment given by (23) with .
The Lorenz and Bonferroni curves of the TCPW class of distributions for a given probability can be written as and , respectively, where and is the QF of at .
The moment of the residual life is provided by
where .
The moment of the reversed residual life is provided by
3.3. Rényi Entropy
The Rényi entropy is provided by (
Utilizing (7), the same procedure as the beneficial expansion (13) and some simplifications, we acquire
where .
Thus, Rényi entropy of family is provided by
4. Bayesian and Non-Bayesian Estimation Methods
4.1. Maximum Likelihood Estimation
Let be a random sample of size from the TCPW distribution. The log-likelihood function for (θ is the vector of parameters, given by
where The components of the score function are
and
where and .
The maximum likelihood estimation (MLEs) can be obtained numerically by solving the non-linear equations simultaneously: Iterative methods such as the Newton–Raphson type algorithms can be used.
4.2. Bayesian Estimation
The Bayesian estimation method depends on an informative prior; let be a random-sample, distributed TCPW-G family with unknown parameters for the TCPWE or TCPWR distribution. To calculate the Bayesian estimation, we choose a prior distribution that is the independent from the gamma distributions. The independent joint prior density function of and is supplied by
The joint posterior density function of , and is obtained from likelihood and joint prior functions as follows:
where . Then, the joint posterior of TCPW-G class can be expressed as
Under the symmetric and asymmetric loss functions, the loss function is important in the Bayesian estimation method. Square error (SE) is a well-known symmetric loss function, which can also be called the posterior mean, and it is defined as
LINEX loss is well-known as an asymmetric loss function, and it can be defined as
See [16,17] for further details on Bayesian estimation. We obviously cannot obtain explicit formulations for the expectation of the marginal posterior distribution for each and every parameter. As a result, the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) approach is used to approximate the value of integrals. Gibbs sampling and, more broadly, Metropolis within Gibbs samplers are key subclasses of MCMC approaches. The Gibbs approach reduces the combined posterior distribution into a whole conditional distribution for each parameter. From PBLJ, the posterior conditional PDF of given can be obtained as
In a similar way, the posterior conditional PDF of given are provided by
In a similar way, the posterior conditional PDF of given . are provided by
The standard techniques of generating random numbers, however, make it difficult to produce random samples directly from the conditional Posterior distributions of . As a result, the Metropolis–Hastings (M–H) method with a normal proposal distribution may be used to generate random samples from these distributions. See [18] for further details on this algorithm. In addition, [19] explains how to extract the informative prior algorithms’ hyper-paraters.
5. Censored Scheme
Reference [20] covers the two most frequent censoring techniques, which are referred to as Type-I and Type-II censoring schemes. A life test is ended after a given number of failures in Type-II censoring, where n and r are fixed and preset, but is a random variable. For further information, see [21]. The data consist of observations and the information that items survive beyond the time of termination T, where r is the number of the uncensored items. The likelihood function of the TCPWE distribution under Type-II censored sample can be written as
This function can be used in the upper section to estimate parameters of this model under the Type-II censored sample. For more examples, see [22,23,24,25].
6. Numerical Outcomes
In this section, a Monte Carlo simulation is used to examine the MLE and Bayesian parameters of the TCPWE under full and Type-II censored data. We produced 10,000 random samples from the TCPWE distribution for various parameter settings.
For various sample sizes n=25, 50 and 100, different ratios of censored sample of failures were obtained, i.e., 72% and 92%. We can define the best scheme as the scheme that minimizes the bias (A1) and the mean squared error (A2) of the estimator. We consider A1 and A2 in order to perform the necessary comparison between various methods of point estimation. The code of numerical results is in the Appendix A.
Table 1, Table 2 and Table 3 illustrate the simulated results of the point estimation techniques given inside this research, from which we can draw the following conclusions:

- As the sample size increases, the A1 and A2 of the parameters under consideration decrease.
- As the ratio of censored sample of failures increase, the value of the A1 and A2 are also decrease.
- For most TCPWE distribution parameters, Bayesian estimates are more efficient than MLE.
- Bayesian estimates based on linex (1.5) loss function have more relative efficiency than other loss functions for most parameters of TCPWE distribution.
- when actual value of μ increases the A1 and A2 of the considered parameters decreases for θ, λ.
- when actual value of λ increases the A1 and A2 of the considered parameters decreases for θ, μ and increase for λ.
- when actual value of θ increases the A1 and A2 of the considered parameters decreases for μ and increases for θ, λ.

7. Applications
We offer three real-world data applications in this section to demonstrate the significance of the TCPWE, TCPWL, and TCPWR models given in Section 2. We produce the MLEs of the model parameters, as well as goodness-of-fit statistics for any of these models, especially in comparison to those of other competing distributions, such as the Kumaraswamy-generalized Lomax (KGL) distribution, which was introduced by [26]; the Weibull–Lomax (WL), which was introduced by [27]; the Marshall–Olkin alpha power exponential (MOAPE), which was introduced by [4]; the extended odd Weibull exponential (EOWE), which was introduced by [28]; the Exponential Lomax (EL) distribution, which was introduced by [29]; and the Weibull–Rayleigh (WR) distribution, which was introduced by [30]. To compare the fitted models, several measures are taken into account. The Akaike information criterion (AIC), the consistent AIC (CAIC), the Hannan–Quinn information criterion (HQIC), the Bayesian information criterion (BIC), and the accompanying p-value are recommended measurements. The smaller the value of these statistics, the better the match. The results of this models have been shown in Table 4, Table 5 and Table 6.

7.1. The First Data Set
The first true data set represents the strength of single carbon fibers impregnated at gauge lengths of 1, 10, 20, and 50 mm in GPa. Tows impregnated with 100 fibers were tested at gauge lengths of 20, 50, 150, and 300 mm. The second data set depicts the fatigue times of 6061-T6 aluminum coupons comprising 101 observations with maximum stress per cycle of 31,000 psi. See [4,31]. The numerical values of the AIC, CAIC, BIC, HQIC, A*, W*, and K–S statistics are listed in Table 4. These results show that the TCPWE, TCPWL, and TCPWR models have the lowest KS values and p-values among all fitted models.
7.2. The Second Data Set
The second data set depicts the fatigue times of 6061-T6 aluminum coupons comprising 101 observations with maximum stress per cycle of 31,000 psi. See [4,31]. The numerical values of the AIC, CAIC, BIC, HQIC, A*, W*, and K–S statistics are listed in Table 5. These results show that the TCPWE, TCPWL, and TCPWR models have the lowest KS values and p-values among all fitted models.
Figure 9, Figure 10 and Figure 11 show estimated PDF with histogram, estimated CDF with empirical CDF, P-P plot and Q-Q plot for TCPWE, TCPWL, and TCPWR distributions, which these figures confirmed that the TCPWE, TCPWL, and TCPWR distributions have been fitted for strength data, fatigue times data and COVID-19 data, respectively. To confirm these estimates are maximum, we plot likelihood profile for parameters of TCPWE distribution, where estimate has maximum log-likelihood value, see Figure 12, Figure 13 and Figure 14. To also check existence, we plot the contour plot by two parameters for log-likelihood of the TCPWE distribution, see Figure 15, Figure 16 and Figure 17. We plot likelihood profile for parameters of TCPWL distribution, where the estimate has the maximum log-likelihood value in Figure 18.

8. Conclusions
This article formulated a new family that has more attractive and flexible distributions and greatly improves the modelling ability of their baseline distributions in the description of real-life events such as carbon and COVID-19 data. A new, flexible extension to the odd Weibull-G family based on a truncated Cauchy power generator was provided. Based on Truncated Cauchy Power Weibull and some classic distribution baselines such as Lomax, exponential, and Rayleigh distributions, this paper introduced three new distributions. Some statistical properties of the new family were provided. Complete and censored samples were considered under this model. In censored samples, the greater the number of censored sample units, the lower the MSE and the bias. Bayesian and MLE methods of estimation were also considered. LINEX and SE loss functions were deduced for Bayesian estimators based on different loss functions. A Monte Carlo simulation study was designed to assess the performance of estimates. Generally, we concluded that the Bayesian estimates are preferable to the corresponding other estimates in most of the situations. A new distribution based on the Lomax distribution was the best model to fit different data sets such as those for carbon fibers and COVID-19.
