    Abstract:
    In this article, we have proposed a new generalization of the odd Weibull-G family by consolidating two notable families of distributions. We have derived various mathematical properties of the proposed family, including quantile function, skewness, kurtosis, moments, incomplete moments, mean deviation, Bonferroni and Lorenz curves, probability weighted moments, moments of (reversed) residual lifetime, entropy and order statistics. After producing the general class, two of the corresponding parametric statistical models are outlined. The hazard rate function of the sub-models can take a variety of shapes such as increasing, decreasing, unimodal, and Bathtub shaped, for different values of the parameters. Furthermore, the sub-models of the introduced family are also capable of modelling symmetric and skewed data. The parameter estimation of the special models are discussed by numerous methods, namely, the maximum likelihood, simple least squares, weighted least squares, Cramér-von Mises, and Bayesian estimation. Under the Bayesian framework, we have used informative and non-informative priors to obtain Bayes estimates of unknown parameters with the squared error and generalized entropy loss functions. An extensive Monte Carlo simulation is conducted to assess the effectiveness of these estimation techniques. The applicability of two sub-models of the proposed family is illustrated by means of two real data sets.
