Abstract
- The exponential model is the simplest among all lifetime distribution models and it possesses a constant failure rate. Here we propose a new class of lifetime distribution having decreasing failure rate which we developed through compounding exponential distribution with the positive hyper-Poisson distribution. We investigate some of its statistical properties and employed various methods of estimation for estimating the parameters of the distribution along with certain test procedures. All the procedures discussed in the paper are illustrated with the help of real-life data sets. Further, a brief simulation study is conducted for examining the performance of the estimators of the parameters of the distribution. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
