Seveal lifetime distibutios have bee suggested i statistics liteatue fo modelig suvival data. Of these distibutios two types gabbed the attetio of the eseaches fo fittig lifetime data: Weibull distibutios ad Lidley distibutios. The choice betwee the two types is due to the atue of hazad ate. Extesive eseach Baghei et al. [] exists o Weibull ad its modificatios. O the othe had may types of Lidley distibutios ad modificatios have bee developed as alteatives to Weibull distibutios.
