Abstract

Motivated by the recent popularization of the beta prime distribution, a more flexible generalization is presented to fit symmetrical or asymmetrical and bimodal data, and a non-monotonic failure rate. Thus, the Weibull-beta prime distribution is defined, and some of its structural properties are obtained. The parameters are estimated by maximum likelihood, and a new regression model is proposed. Some simulations reveal that the estimators are consistent, and applications to censored COVID-19 data show the adequacy of the models.
