Univariate And Bivariate Burr Type X Distributions Based On Mixtures And Copula
Abstract
The Burr type X distribution has been used in analyzing and fitting lifetime data. It has a close relationship with the Weibull, gamma, exponentiated Weibull and exponentiated exponential distributions and shares various characteristics of these distributions. In this paper, a new bivariate Burr type X distribution is introduced. The construction of this distribution is based on the M mixture representation which combines the mixing and copula ideas. The bivariate Burr type X distribution is constructed based on the Gaussian copula. Bayesian estimation via Gibbs sampler is conducted under different loss functions. A numerical comparison is given for illustrative purpose.

We have provided the online access of all issues and papers to the indexing agencies (as given on journal web site). It’s depend on indexing agencies when, how and what manner they can index or not. Hence, we like to inform that on the basis of earlier indexing, we can’t predict the today or future indexing policy of third party (i.e. indexing agencies) as they have right to discontinue any journal at any time without prior information to the journal. So, please neither sends any question nor expects any answer from us on the behalf of third party i.e. indexing agencies.Hence, we will not issue any certificate or letter for indexing issue. Our role is just to provide the online access to them. So we do properly this and one can visit indexing agencies website to get the authentic information. Also: DOI is paid service which provided by a third party. We never mentioned that we go for this for our any journal. However, journal have no objection if author go directly for this paid DOI service.
