Abstract |
|
This article presents a new extension of the three-parameter log-logistic distribution, the so-called heavy-tailed log-logistic (HTLL) distribution. Some important mathematical properties of the new HTLL distribution are calculated. In addition, some numerical results of moments for the HTLL distribution are calculated. Extensive simulations were performed to investigate the estimation of the model parameters using many established approaches, including maximum likelihood (ML), least squares (LS), weighted least squares (WLS), Cramer-von Mises (CVM), Anderson-Darling (AD), and right-tail Anderson-Darling (RTAD). The simulation results show that the AD approach has the highest efficiency among these approaches. The usefulness of the newly proposed model is demonstrated by analyzing two real data sets.
