odd power generalized weibull-g family of distributions‎: ‎model‎, properties and applications

‎a new generalized family of distributions called the odd power generalized weibull-g family of distributions is developed‎. some ‎properties of the new family of distributions including quantile function‎, ‎moments‎, ‎incomplete and probability weighted moments‎, ‎distribution of the order statistics and renyi entropy are derived‎. ‎estimation of model parameters using maximum likelihood estimation technique and simulation study to examine the bias and mean square error are discussed‎. ‎applications to real data sets to illustrate the applicability of the generalized family of distributions is also given‎.
