Evaluation of survival weighted Pareto distribution: Analytical properties and applications to industrial and aeronautics data

In statistical modeling, lifetime datasets play an important and significant role. Weighted distributions can be useful to attain the essential purposes relating to the developed distributions’ flexibility and to improve further compliances in data forming; they provide the extension of distributions. The current study suggests a new best-fit probability distribution model based on Pareto distribution. The new model is called Survival Weighted Pareto (SWP) distribution model. Furthermore, the statistical expressions for different properties, which include moments, inverse moments, quantile function, and order statistics, are reported. Moreover, to check the performance and the behavior of different estimators using different sample sizes, a simulation study, which is based on SWP distribution, is performed. According to the simulation results, it is established that the proposed model is a most useful fitted probability model. In addition, an application of the SWP model for three datasets is provided to check the goodness of fit measures of the model.
