contents A New Extension of the Exponential Distribution Yolanda M. Gómez Heleno Bolfarine Héctor W. Gómez Física, Astronomía y Matemáticas Likelihood Exponential distribution Mixtures of distribution The present paper considers an extension of the exponential distribution based on mixtures of positive distributions. We study the main properties of this new distribution, with special emphasis on its moments, moment generator function and some characteristics related to reliability studies. We also discuss parameter estimation considering the maximum likelihood and moments approach. An application reveals that the model proposed can be very useful in fitting real data. A final discussion concludes the paper. 2014 artículo científico 0120-1751 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=89931327002 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=899 Revista Colombiana de Estadística application/pdf Universidad Nacional de Colombia Revista Colombiana de Estadística (Colombia) Num.1 Vol.37
