Abstract

This paper introduces a new generator family of distributions called the Gompertz Ampadu-G family. Based on the generator, the Lomax distribution was modified into Gompertz Ampadu Lomax. The new distribution has a flexible hazard rate function that has upside-down and bathtub shapes, including increasing and decreasing hazard rate functions. The distribution comes with some desirable statistical properties. The distribution is applied to real-life data. Parameter estimates and test statistics show a better fit for the competitive models.
