Application of Odd Lomax log-logistic distribution to cancer data.

The effectiveness of the parental distribution is modified in this article by adding flexibility, allowing it to capture all characteristics of the provided real-world data sets. This is accomplished by using the T-X class of distributions to generalize the parental distribution. Odd Lomax log-logistic distribution or OLLLD in short, is the name of the generalized parental distribution. The fundamental statistical properties of OLLLD are explicitly expressed. The maximum likelihood estimation approach is used to estimate the unidentified OLLLD parameters. In order to investigate the fit of the approach employed in estimating the parameters of OLLLD, the data are generated and an investigation done. Again, the ability of OLLLD is evaluated by fitting it to the real survival time data set of breast cancer.

The odd log-logistic generalized exponential distribution: Application on survival times of chemotherapy patients data.

Background: The creation of developing new generalized classes of distributions has attracted applied and theoretical statisticians owing to their properties of flexibility. The development of generalized distribution aims to find distribution flexibility and suitability for available data. In this decade, most authors have developed classes of distributions that are new, to become valuable for applied researchers. Methods: This study aims to develop the odd log-logistic generalized exponential distribution (OLLGED), one of the lifetime newly generated distributions in the field of statistics. The advantage of the newly generated distribution is the heavily tailed distributed lifetime data set. Most of the probabilistic properties are derived including generating functions, moments, and quantile and order statistics. Results: Estimation of the model parameter is done by the maximum likelihood method. The performance of parametric estimation is studied through simulation. Application of OLLGED and its flexibilities is done using two data sets and while its performance is done on the randomly simulated data set. Conclusions: The application and flexibility of the OLLGED are ensured through empirical observation using two sets of lifetime data, establishing that the proposed OLLGED can provide a better fit in comparison to existing rival models, such as odd generalized log-logistic, type-II generalized log-logistic, exponential distributions, odd exponential log-logistic, generalized exponential, and log-logistic.
