The Maxwell-Burr X Distribution: Its Properties and Applications to the COVID-19 Mortality Rate in Thailand
Keywords:
Maxwell generalized family, hazard function, quantile function, model selection criteria, maximum likelihood estimationAbstract
A novel distribution, the Maxwell-Burr X (M-BX) distribution, was proposed. This distribution was an extension of the Burr X distribution by applying the Maxwell generalized family of distributions. The cumulative distribution function, probability density function, survival function, hazard function and quantile function of the M-BX distribution were defined. Some important properties and the parameters of its estimates were discussed. A simulation study was conducted from the basis of quantile function to ascertain the performance of maximum likelihood estimators. The M-BX distribution were also applied to model two lifetime data sets relating to the COVID-19 mortality rate in Thailand during different periods to express the flexibility of the distribution against other competing distributions. According to information criteria, AIC, CAIC, BIC, and HQIC, the M-BX distribution gave the best fit among all chosen distributions.
