| Abstract | ||||
| Probability distributions are fundamental tools in statistical modeling, particularly in the analysis of lifetime, reliability, and epidemiological data. Classical distributions such as the exponential, Weibull, and gamma, while analytically convenient, often lack the flexibility required to model complex real-world phenomena, such as skewness, heavy tails, and intricate dependence structures. In response to these limitations, this paper introduces a novel trigonometric-based extension of the Marshall-Olkin family, termed the Marshall-Olkin Cosine Topp-Leone (MOCTL) distribution family. This new family incorporates additional shape parameters that allow for greater modeling flexibility and adaptability across various data types. We derive and explore several important statistical properties of the proposed family, including its density, distribution, hazard rate, and quantile functions. Parameter estimation is addressed using the maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) method, and a detailed Monte Carlo simulation is conducted to assess the performance, bias, and consistency of the MLEs. The real-world applicability of the MOCTL family is demonstrated through three datasets, including medical and epidemiological studies. Furthermore, a log-MOCTL Weibull regression model is proposed and applied to HIV/TB and COVID-19 datasets, confirming its superior modeling capability. | ||||
