Chen-Burr XII Model as a Competing Risks Model with Applications to Real-Life Data Sets

In this paper Chen-Burr XII distribution is constructed and graphical description of the probability density function, hazard rate and reversed hazard rate functions of the proposed model is obtained. Also, some statistical characteristics of the Chen-Burr XII distribution are discussed and some new models as sub-models from the Chen-Burr XII distribution are introduced. Moreover, maximum likelihood estimation of the parameters, reliability, hazard rate and reversed hazard rate functions of the Chen-Burr XII distribution are considered. Also, the asymptotic confidence intervals of the distribution parameters, reliability, hazard rate and reversed hazard rate functions are presented. Finally, three real life data sets are applied to prove how the Chen-Burr XII distribution can be applied in real life and to confirm its superiority over some existing distributions.
