THE TRUNCATED ISHITA DISTRIBUTION:
PROPERTIES AND APPLICATION

Abstract

In this paper, a new truncated distribution, which is called the truncated Ishita (TI) distribution, is proposed. Some statistical properties including moments, survival, and hazard functions, are discussed. Moreover, the maximum likelihood estimation is constructed for estimating the parameters of the TI distribution. Finally, an application based on real data is conducted to illustrate the usefulness of the proposed distribution.
