This distribution is called the generalized linear exponential distribution (GLED). Some statistical properties such as moments, modes and quantiles are derived. The failure rate function and the mean residual lifetime are also discussed. The maximum likelihood estimators of the parameters are obtained using a simulation study. Real data are used to determine whether the GLED is better than other well-known distributions in modeling lifetime data or not.  ISSN : 0167-7152  Journal Name : Statistics and Probability Letters  Volume : 80  Issue Number : 11  Publishing Year : 1431 AH 2010 AD  Article Type : Article  Added Date : Monday, November 14, 2011  Researchers Researcher Name (Arabic) Researcher Name (English) Researcher Type Dr Grade Email M A W Mahmoud Mahmoud, M A W Researcher Doctorate mawmahmoud11@yahoo.com فاروق محمد عالم Alam, Farouq Mohammad Researcher Doctorate fmalam@kau.edu.sa Files File Name Type Description  31246.pdf pdf Abstract Back To Researches Page
