Modeling Physical and Medical Lifetime Data Using the Inverse Power Entropy Chen Distribution

This paper presents a new model that surpasses traditional distributions, specifically the three-parameter distribution of the Inverse Power Entropy Chen (IPEC) model. In comparison to the existing distributions, the latest one presents an exceptionally diverse array of probability functions. The density and hazard rate functions have characteristics indicating that the model is adaptable to many types of data. The study explores the mathematical features of the IPEC distribution, including moments with some related measures, quantile function, Rényi entropy, Tsallis entropy, and order statistics. To estimate the parameters of the IPEC model, we utilized seven classical estimation strategies, including maximum likelihood estimators, Anderson–Darling estimators, right-tail Anderson–Darling estimators, Cramér–von Mises estimators, percentile estimators, least-squares estimators, and weighted least-squares estimators. To evaluate the efficacy of these estimating approaches across varying sample sizes, Monte Carlo simulations are performed. The efficacy of each estimator is evaluated through comparisons of average relative bias and mean squared error, highlighting their suitability for the used samples. Three applications utilize real-world datasets related to medical and physical fields, demonstrating the usefulness of the new model in relation to several established competitive models. This empirical investigation further supports the utility and adaptability of the inverse power entropy Chen model in capturing the intricacies of distinct datasets, hence delivering useful insights for practitioners in numerous domains.
