Exponentiated generalized geometric distribution: A new discrete distribution
In this paper, a new three-parameter extension of the generalized geometric distribution of [6] is introduced. The new discrete distribution
belongs to the resilience parameter family and handles a decreasing, increasing, upside-down and bathtub-shaped hazard rate function. The
new distributions can also be considered as discrete analogs of some
recent continuous distributions belonging to the known Marshall-Olkin
family. Here, some basic statistical and mathematical properties of the
new distribution are studied. In addition, estimation of the unknown
parameters, a simulated example and an application of the new model
are illustrated.
