Abstract

A new distribution, namely, the
Gamma-Half-Cauchy distribution is
Gamma-Half-Cauchy distribution
proposed. Various properties of the
are studied in detail such as limiting behavior, moments, mean devi-
ations and Shannon entropy. The model parameters are estimated by
the method of maximum likelihood and the observed information ma-
trix is obtained. Two data sets are used to illustrate the applications
of Gamma-Half-Cauchy distribution.

Keywords
