Abstract

In this study, it has been aimed to introduce a new statistical distribution called Exponential Power-Chen by using the method suggested by Alzaatreh et al. (2013). Some statistical properties such as moments, coefficies of skewness and kurtosis, random number generator for Exponential Power Chen (EP-CH) distribution are obtained. Moreover, the maximum likelihood estimators (MLEs) for unknown parameters of EP-CH distribution have been derived and a Monte Carlo simulation study based on mean square errors and biases of this estimators for various sample sizes have been performed. Finally, an application using real data set has been presented for this new distribution.
