This paper presents a new extension of Birnbaum-Saunders distribution based on skew Laplace distribution. Some properties of the new distribution are studied and the EM-type estimators of the parameters with their standard errors are obtained. Finally, we conduct a simulation study and illustrate our distribution by considering two real data example.

This paper introduces a new distribution based on extreme value distribution. Some properties and characteristics of the new distribution such as distribution function, moment generating function and skewness and kurtosis are studied. Finally, by computing the maximum likelihood estimators of the new distribution's parameters, the performance of the model is illustrated via two real examples.
