Survival analysis of cancer patients using a new Lomax Rayleigh distribution

Open Access
|Jun 2023

Abstract

A new Lomax Rayleigh distribution (NLRD) is proposed and generated using Transformed Transformer (T-X) family generator. Various structural properties like generating functions, moments, limiting form, quantile function median and mode of NLRD are studied. Maximum likelihood estimators (MLEs) of the parameters are obtained and the model fitting is tested with simulated data. Model adequacy with live data is explained with two real-time cancer data sets. The NLRD shows a better fit in the estimation of survival in bile duct cancer and head and neck cancer data than other existing distributions.
