This family of distributions is called the alpha-beta skew logistic (ABSLG) distribution.Density function, moments, skewness and kurtosis coefficients are derived. The parameters of the new family are estimated by maximum likelihood and moments methods. The performance of the obtained estimators examined via a Monte carlo simulation. Flexibility, usefulness and suitability of ABSLG is illustrated by analyzing two real data sets.</span></p&gt;}, number={1}, journal={Statistics, Optimization & Information Computing}, author={Esmaeili, Hamid and Lak, Fazlollah and Alizadeh, Morad and Dehghan monfared, Mohammad esmail}, year={2020}, month={Feb.}, pages={304-317} }
