Abstract
Abstract In this paper, we introduce the newly generated Ristić–Balakrishnan–Topp–Leone–Gompertz-G family of distributions. Statistical and mathematical properties of this new family including moments, moment generating function, incomplete moments, conditional moments, probability weighted moments, distribution of the order statistics, stochastic ordering, and Rényi entropy are derived. The unknown parameters of the family are inferred using the maximum likelihood estimation technique. A Monte Carlo simulation study is performed to investigate the convergence of the maximum likelihood estimation. Three real-life data sets are used to demonstrate the flexibility and capacity of the new family of distributions.
