Janardan Distribution and its Application to Waiting Times Data

Rama Shanker, Shambhu Sharma, Uma Shanker, Ravi Shanker

Abstract :

A two parameter continuous distribution named “Janardan distribution (JD)”, of which the Lindley distribution (LD) is a particular case, has been introduced. Its moments, failure rate function, mean residual life function and stochastic orderings have been discussed. The maximum likelihood method and the method of moments have been discussed for estimating its parameters. The superiority of the proposed distribution has been illustrated with an application to a real data set.
