The behavior of the reliability functions and stochastic orders in family of the Kumaraswamy-G distributions
Abstract:   (2539 Views)

The Kumaraswamy distribution is a two-parameter distribution on the interval (0,1) that is very similar to beta distribution. This distribution is applicable to many natural phenomena whose outcomes have lower and upper bounds, such as the proportion of people from society who consume certain products in a given interval. 

In this paper, we introduce the family of Kumaraswamy-G distribution, and we detect its hazard rate function, reversible hazard rate function, mean residual life function, mean past life function, and the behavior of each of them. Also, we investigate the stochastic order concept of the family of Kumaraswamy-G distribution. Finally, in the form of a practical example, we analyze the suitability of the Kumaraswamy distribution for real data.

Keywords: hazard rate function, stochastic order, reliability, log concave, mean residual life function, reversed hazard rate function.
