On a power transformation of half-logistic distribution

A new continuous distribution on the positive real line is constructed from half-logistic distribution,using a transformation and its analytical characteristics are studied. some characterization results are derived. classical procedures for the estimation of parameters of the new distribution are discussed and a comparative study is done through numerical examples. further,different families of continuous distributions on the positive real line are generated using this distribution. application is discussed with the help of real-life data sets. © 2016 s. d. krishnarani.
