Exp-Uniform Distribution: Properties and Characterizations

Abstract

In this paper, we study properties of exp-uniform distribution and its applications. We provide closed forms for the density function and moments of order statistics and we also discuss estimation of the parameters via the maximum likelihood method. We will present certain characteriza- tions of exp-uniform distribution. The applications of this distribution are illustrated by fitting it to three real data sets and comparing the results with other lifetime distributions. We hope that this distribution will attract wider applications in lifetime models.
