TY - JOUR TI - Estimation of inverse Ishita distribution with application on real data AU - Abu-Zinadah Hanaa AU - Aljadani Dalal JN - Thermal Science PY - 2024 VL - 28 IS - 6 SP - 4843 EP - 4853 PT - Article AB - In this article, a new lifetime distribution named "inverse Ishita" with one parameter for modelling lifetime data is presented as a good alternative to known one-parameter distributions. Moreover, two types of estimation: point estimation and interval estimation are used to estimate the unknown parameter. Furthermore, numerical simulation is conducted to evaluate the performance of estimates at different parameter values and different sample sizes. Ultimately, to illustrate the flexibility and efficiency of the distribution, it was applied to a set of data and compared to the Weibull and Shanker distributions. It was found that the inverse Ishita distribution was a better fit for the data than the other distributions.
