Abstract
In this paper, we introduce a new five-parameters distribution with increasing, decreasing, bathtub-shaped failure rate, called as the Beta Weibull-Geometric (BWG) distribution. Using the Sterling Polynomials, the probability density function and several properties of the new distribution such as its reliability and failure rate functions, quantiles and moments, Renyi and Shannon entropies, moments of order statistics, mean residual life, reversed mean residual life are obtained. The maximum likelihood estimation procedure is presented in this paper. Also, we compare the results of fitting this distribution to some of their sub-models, using to a real data set. It is also shown that the BWG distribution fits better to this data set.

Abstract
The standard Beta distribution is a suitable distribution for modeling the data that include proportions. In many situations which the data of proportions include a considerable number of zeros and ones, the inflated beta distributions are more appropriate. When probabilities of recording such observations are proportional to a nonnegative weight function, the recorded observations distributed as a weighted inflated Beta. This article focuses on the size biased inflated Beta distribution as a special case of weighted inflated Beta distribution with the power weight function. Some properties of this distribution is studied and its parameters are estimated using maximum likelihood and method of moments approaches. The estimators are compared via a simulation study. Finally, the real mortality data set is fitted for this model.
