Received: November 15, 2019; Published: November 26, 2019 Abstract A four-parameter compound continuous distribution for modeling lifetime data known as the Odd Generalized Exponentiated Inverse Lomax distribution was proposed in this study. Basic Structural properties were derived in minute details. Simulation studies was carried out to investigate the behavior of the proposed distribution, from which the maximum likelihood estimates for the true parameters, including the bias and root mean existing distribution. square error (RMSE) were obtained. The proposed model was applied to the strengths of glass fibres dataset and the result compared to other Keywords: Odd generalized exponentiated family, Inverse lomax distribution, Moments, Reliability function, Hazard function, Continuous distribution Introduction verted Lomax distribution if the corresponding probability density Various distributions have been proposed to serve as models for function and cumulative density function are given by [5]: wide applications on data from different real-life situations through −+(1α ) the extension of existing distribution.
