Abstract


In this paper, we introduce four parameter continuous probability distribution and named it as Type II Topp-Leone
Dagum distribution which is generated using Type II Topp-Leone generated family of distributions. We observe
different desirable properties of Type II Topp-Leone Dagum distribution. We present expressions for important
statistical measures such as moments, moment generating function, cumulant generating function, inverted
moments, probability weighted moments, reliability function, hazard rate function, reversed hazard function,
cumulative hazard function, second failure rate function, mean waiting time, mean residual life, Bonferroni index,
Lorenz curve and generalized entropy. For the proposed distribution, the parameters of the distribution are
estimated by using maximum likelihood method. Finally, we used failure time of air conditioners data to study
performance of the proposed distribution.
