Weibull Inverse Lomax Distribution

Abstract

A four-parameter lifetime model, named the Weibull inverse Lomax (WIL) is presented and studied. Some structural properties are derived. The estimation of the model parameters is performed based on Type II censored sample. Maximum likelihood estimators along with asymptotic confidence intervals of population parameters and reliability function are constructed. The property of consistency of maximum likelihood estimators has been verified on the basis of simulated samples.  Further, the results are applied on two real data.
