One Inflated Binomial Distribution and its Real-Life Applications

Received Date:02 April 2021, Accepted Date:27 May 2021, Published Date:29 June 2021

Abstract

Objective: To introduce a one-inflated Binomial distribution (OIBD) and discuss its applications. Methods: Study its distributional properties, reliability characteristics, and estimation of its parameters using the method of moment estimation (MM) and maximum likelihood estimation (MLE). A simulation study has been conducted to see the behaviour of the MLEs. Two real-life examples are used to examine the pertinent of the proposed distribution. Findings The proposed one-inflated binomial distribution (OIBD) provides better fitting in terms of AIC, BIC, and KS test comparison to the other known distributions. Novelty: Develop a new statistical distribution to study the count data having inflated frequency at count one, along with the different statistical properties. The practical utility of the distribution is also discussed with real-life examples.

Keywords

One inflated Binomial distribution, MM, MLE, KS, AIC and BIC
