Abstract

In this work, we derive and study a new weighted G family of continuous distributions called the new weighted generated family (NW-G). We study some basic properties including quantile function, asymptotic, the mixture for CDF and pdf, residual entropy, and order statistics. Then, we study half-logistic distribution as a special case with more details. Comprehensive graphical simulations are performed under some common estimation methods. Finally, two real-life data sets are analyzed to demonstrate the objectives.
