Abstract
- In this paper, we propose a new distribution over the unit interval which can be characterized as a ratio of the type $Z=Y/(X+Y)$ where $X$ and $Y$ are two correlated Birnbaum-Saunders random variables. The density of $Z$ may be unimodal or bimodal. Simple expressions for the cumulative distribution function, moment-generating function and moments are obtained. Moreover, the stress-strength probability between $X$ and $Y$ is calculated explicitly in the symmetric case, that is, when the respective scale parameters are equal. Two applications of the ratio distribution are discussed.<br />Comment: 22 pages; 10 figures
