A new three-parameter cubic transmuted power distribution is proposed using the cubic rank transformation. The density and hazard functions of the new distribution provide great flexibility. Some mathematical properties of the new model such as quantile function, moments, dispersion index, mean residual life, and order statistics are derived. The model parameters are estimated using five different estimation methods. A comprehensive simulation study is carried out to understand the behavior of derived estimators and choose the best estimation method. The usefulness of the proposed distribution is illustrated using a real dataset. It is concluded that the proposed distribution is better than some well-known existing distributions. |
