The four-parameter generalized lambda distribution (GLD) was proposed in [1]. We say the GLD is of type V, if the quantile function corresponds to Case(v) in of [2], that is,
where u 2 (0, 1) and a, b 2 (−1, 0). In this short note, we introduce the T-R {Generalized Lambda V} Families of Distributions and show a sub-model of this class of distributions is significant in modeling real life data, in particular the Wheaton river data, [2]. We conjecture the new class of distributions can be used to fit biological and health data.

a) The T – R {Y} Family of Distributions
b) The New Distribution
c) Practical Significance
d) Open Problem
This family of distributions was proposed in [3]. In particular, let T, R, Y be random variables with CDF’s FT (x) = P (T _ x), FR(x) = P (R _ x), and FY (x) = P (Y _ x), respectively. Let the corresponding quantile functions be denoted by QT (p), QR(p), and QY (p), respectively. Also, if the densities exist, let the corresponding PDF’s be denoted by fT (x), fR(x), and fY (x), respectively. Following this notation, the, the CDF of the T – R {Y} is given by
and the PDF of the T-R{Y} family is given by
Theorem: The CDF of the T-R {Generalized Lambda V} Families of Distributions is given by
where the random variable R has CDF FR(x), the random variable T with support (0,1) has CDF FT, and a, b 2 (−1, 0) Proof. Consider the integral
and let Y follow the generalized lambda class of distributions of type V, where the quantile is as stated in the abstract
Remark: the PDF can be obtained by differentiating the CDF
In this section, we show a sub-model of the new distribution defined in the previous section is significant in modeling real life data. We assume T is standard exponential so that FT (t) = 1 − e−t, t > 0 and R follows the two-parameter Weibull distribution, so that
Now from Theorem 2.1, we have the following
Theorem: The CDF of the Standard Exponential-Weibull {Generalized Lambda V}
Families of Distributions is given by
where c, d > 0 and a, b 2 (−1, 0)
By differentiating the CDF, we obtain the following
Theorem: the PDF of the Standard Exponential-Weibull {Generalized Lambda V} Families of Distributions is given by
where c, d > 0 and a, b 2 (−1, 0)
Remark: If a random variable B follows the Standard Exponential-Weibull {Generalized
Lambda V} Families of Distributions write
B _ SEWGLV (a, b, c, d)
Conjecture: The new class of distributions can be used in forecasting and modelingn of biological and health data. Related to the above conjecture is the following
Question: Is there a sub-model of the T-R {Generalized Lambda V} Families of Distributions that can fit? [3] (Appendix 1) and (Figures 1-3).
