e generalized Gamma model has been applied in a variety of research fields, including reliability engineering and lifetime
analysis. Indeed, we know that, from the above, it is unbounded. Data have a bounded service area in a variety of applications. A
new five-parameter bounded generalized Gamma model, the bounded Weibull model with four parameters, the bounded Gamma
model with four parameters, the bounded generalized Gaussian model with three parameters, the bounded exponential model
with three parameters, and the bounded Rayleigh model with two parameters, is presented in this paper as a special case. is
approach to the problem, which utilizes a bounded support area, allows for a great deal of versatility in fitting various shapes of
observed data. Numerous properties of the proposed distribution have been deduced, including explicit expressions for the
moments, quantiles, mode, moment generating function, mean variance, mean residual lifespan, and entropies, skewness,
kurtosis, hazard function, survival function, r th order statistic, and median distributions. e delivery has hazard frequencies that
are monotonically increasing or declining, bathtub-shaped, or upside-down bathtub-shaped. We use the Newton Raphson
approach to approximate model parameters that increase the log-likelihood function and some of the parameters have a closed
iterative structure. Six actual data sets and six simulated data sets were tested to demonstrate how the proposed model works in
reality. We illustrate why the Model is more stable and less affected by sample size. Additionally, the suggested model for wavelet
histogram fitting of images and sounds is very accurate.
1. Introduction
e gamma (ΓM) model, including Weibull, gamma, ex-
ponential, and Rayleigh as special submodels, among
others, is a very popular distribution for modeling lifetime
data and for modeling phenomenon with monotone failure
rates. An advantage of ΓM is that it requires a little measure
of parameters for learning. Also, these parameters can be
measured by getting the expectation maximization (EM)
algorithm [1, 2] to maximize the log-likelihood function.
e early generalization of gamma distribution can be
traced back to Amoroso [3] who discussed a generalized
gamma distribution and applied it to fit income rates.
Johnson et al. [4] gave a four parameter generalized gamma
distribution which reduces to the generalized gamma
distribution defined by Stacy [2] when the location pa-
rameter is set to zero. Mudholkar and Srivastava [5] in-
troduced the exponentiated method to derive a
distribution. e generalized gamma defined by Stacy [2] is
a three-parameter exponentiated gamma distribution.
Agarwal and Al-Saleh [6] applied generalized gamma to
study hazard rates. Balakrishnan and Peng [7] applied this
distribution to develop generalized gamma frailty model.
Cordeiro et al. [8] derived another generalization of Stacys
generalized gamma distribution using exponentiated
method and applied it to life time and survival analysis.
Nadarajah and Gupta [9] proposed another type of gen-
eralized gamma distribution with application to fit drought
