On Zero-Truncated Quasi Poisson-Lindley Distribution and Its Applications
Abstract
A zero-truncated quasi Poisson-Lindley distribution (ZTQPLD), of which zero-truncated Poisson-Lindley distribution (ZTPLD) is a particular case, has been obtained by compounding size-biased Poisson distribution (SBPD) with a continuous distribution. The th factorial moment of ZTQPLD have been derived and hence its raw moments and central moments have been given. The expressions for coefficient of variation, skewness, kurtosis, and index of dispersion have been obtained and their nature and behavior have been discussed. The method of maximum likelihood estimation has been discussed for estimating the parameters of ZTQPLD. Finally, the goodness of fit of ZTQPLD has been discussed with some data sets and the fit has been compared with zero – truncated Poisson distribution (ZTPD) and zero- truncated Poisson- Lindley distribution (ZTPLD).

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.
