Khalil New Generalized Weibull Distribution Based on Ranked Samples: Estimation, Mathematical Properties, and Application to COVID-19 Data

Predictive modeling of reliability engineering data using a new version of the flexible Weibull model

The combined-unified hybrid sampling approach was introduced as a general model that combines the unified hybrid censoring sampling approach and the combined hybrid censoring approach into a unified approach. In this paper, we apply this censoring sampling approach to improve the estimation of the parameter via a novel five-parameter expansion distribution, which we call the generalized Weibull-modified Weibull model. The new distribution contains five parameters and is therefore very flexible in terms of accommodating different types of data. The new distribution provides graphs of the probability density function, e.g., symmetric or right skewed. The graph of the risk function can have a shape similar to a monomer of the increasing or decreasing model. Using the Monte Carlo method, the maximum likelihood approach is used in the estimation procedure. The Copula model was used to discuss the two marginal univariate distributions. The asymptotic confidence intervals of the parameters were developed. We present some simulation results to validate the theoretical results. Finally, a data set with failure times for 50 electronic components was analyzed to illustrate the applicability and potential of the proposed model.
