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.

In order to construct the asymmetric models and analyzing data set with asymmetric properties, an useful approach is the weighted model. In this paper, a new class of skew-Laplace distributions is introduced by considering a two-parameter weight function which is appropriate to asymmetric and multimodal data sets. Also, some properties of the new distribution namely skewness and kurtosis coefficients, moment generating function, etc are studied. Finally, The practical utility of the methodology is illustrated through a real data collection.
