Kumaraswamy-G generalized Gompertz distribution with application to lifetime data

‎Recently, generalized distributions have received much attention due to their high applicability and flexibility. This paper introduces a new five-parameter distribution called Kumaraswamy-G generalized Gompertz distribution, which is widely used in the field of survival and lifetime data. In introducing a new distribution, it is important to study the statistical properties and the estimation of its parameters. Therefore, this paper studies the statistical properties of this new distribution. In addition, the parameters of this distribution are estimated by three methods. Finally, using a real dataset, the performance of the introduced distribution is investigated.
