Abstract In this article, we highlight a new three-parameter heavy-tailed lifetime distribution that aims to extend the
modeling possibilities of the Lomax distribution. It is called the extended Lomax distribution. The considered
distribution naturally appears as the distribution of a transformation of a random variable following the logweighted power distribution recently introduced for percentage or proportion data analysis purposes. As a result,
its cumulative distribution has the same functional basis as that of the Lomax distribution, but with a novel
special logarithmic term depending on several parameters. The modulation of this logarithmic term reveals new
types of asymetrical shapes, implying a… More >
