This paper introduces a new one-parameter family (NPFD) derived from the cumulative distribution function (CDF). We study the main properties of the proposed family, with a special emphasis on its moments, reliability parameters, and asymptotic distributions of the extreme order statistics. Then, inferential considerations are explored. We discuss the parameter estimation by the moments, maximum likelihood methods and the Bayesian estimation. Also, likelihood estimation and Bayesian estimation using the Pitman asymptotic criterion are given. Three applications reveal that the new model can fit well practical data sets.

We propose a new extension of the exponential distribution for right censored Bayesian and non-Bayesian distributional validation. The parameter of the new distribution is estimated using several conventional methods, including the Bayesian method. The likelihood estimates and the Bayesian estimates are compared using Pitman’s closeness criteria. The Bayesian estimators are derived using three loss functions: the extended quadratic, the Linex, and the entropy functions. Through simulated experiments, all the estimating approaches offered have been assessed. The censored maximum likelihood method and the Bayesian approach are compared using the BB algorithm. The development of the Nikulin–Rao–Robson statistic for the new model in the uncensored situation is thoroughly discussed with the aid of two applications and a simulation exercise. For the novel model under the censored condition, two applications and the derivation of the Bagdonavičius and Nikulin statistic are also described.
