Abstract
In this article, four new families named as Weibull extended exponentiated-X (WEE-X), Lomax extended exponentiated-X (LEE-X), Logistic extended exponentiated-X (LGCEE-X), and Burr III extended exponentiated-X (BIIIEE-X) with their quantile functions are proposed. The expressions for distribution function and density function of BIIIEE-X family are written in terms of linear combinations of the exponentiated densities based to parent model. New models, i.e., Weibul extended exponentiated Weibull (WEEW), Lomax extended exponentiated Weibull (LEEW), Logistic extended exponentiated Weibull (LGCEEW), and Burr III extended exponentiated-Weibull (BIIIEEW) distributions are derived, were plotted for functions of probability density and hazard rate at different levels of parameters. Some mathematical properties of the BIIIEEW model are disclosed. The maximum likelihood method for the BIIIEEW model are described. Numerical applications of the BIIIEEW model to disease of cancer datasets are provided.

1. Introduction
Statistical modeling of lifetime data plays an important role in medical science. To determine reliable results in estimating medical data, it is often required to choose the appropriate statistical distribution of the data. Continuous probability distributions, such as the Weibull, exponential, Rayleigh, lognormal, gamma, logistic, and log-logistic, can be used to model biomedical data (BoMD). However, it is clear that the BoMD deviate from these classical distributions because of the skewness and heavy tails that are present in the data. Due to this, the aforementioned traditional skewed distributions become less suitable for modeling BoMD. Weibull distribution (WD) is not flexible enough to handle data types with a lot of complexity. Practically all clinical issues, including breast, bladder, neck, and other cancers, have unimodel or modified unimodel failure rates. After surgery, risk of bladder, breast, and neck cancer are unimodel. The regular two-parameter WD can simply model monotonically increasing and decreasing failure rate functions (FRFs), making it less relevant for fitting when data show non-monotonic FRFs. These disadvantages have motivated researchers to develop several generalizations of it to obtain more flexible distributions for modeling. Therefore, there is a need to emphasize the importance of enhancing the classical distributions for modeling BoMD. Numerous studies have been conducted to create statistical models that are superior to conventional models in their ability to describe health data.
Based on extended versions of WDs, numerous studies have examined the characteristics of various cancer datasets (CDSs). When data on cancer remission times were applied, the q-Weibull distribution by Jose and Naik (2009) [1] performed better than the regular WD. When it came to modeling colorectal cancer, the generalized WD that was developed by Baghestani et al. (2017) [2] performed well. The performance of the beta- weighted WD described by Idowu and Ikegwu (2013) [3] was validated using bladder cancer datasets (BCDSs). Modeling BCDSs was used to evaluate the empirical proofs of the transmuted exponentiated generalized WD by Yousof et al. (2017) [4], the Marshall- Olkin generalized WD by Elgohari and Yousof (2020) [5], the Marshall–Olkin power generalized WD by Afify et al. (2020) [6], and the Gull alpha power WD by Ijaz et al. (2020) [7]. With these new families, statistical modeling can be more adaptable, especially in practical fields, such as finance, engineering, the environment, and health care. In the statistical literature, one can add one or more parameters to a known distribution to create a family of distributions. The generalized distribution emerges when the parameters are added to the baseline distribution. The generalized distribution can be used effectively in fitting lifetime datasets because it can accommodate monotonic and non-monotonic data characteristics.
The transformed-transformer (T-X) technique was proposed by Alzaatreh et al. (2013) [8] to develop new G-families. Let for be a random variable (rv) having probability density function (PDF) and cumulative distribution function (CDF) and let be a function of CDF of any parent rv X so that satisfies the conditions below:
The CDF of T-X family of distributions (FoDs) is:
The PDF associated with Equation (2) is:
In Equation (2), the PDF is transformed into CDF by function , which behaves similar to a transformer, and in Equation (3), the distribution is transformed from rv T through transformer rv X.
The function will give a new FODs based on the support of the rv T. By using the following equation:
the in Equation (2) is a CDF of new FoDs, which is defined as:
where is the CDF of rv T. The corresponding PDF related to Equation (5) is:
The main objectives for proposing new X-families are:
- i.
- Developing new X-families related to the function of CDF, i.e., .
- ii.
- The developed families based on a generator, i.e., instead of .
- iii.
- The generator discussed in step ii has the ability to generate better goodness of fit results and parameters estimates that can make it distinguishable and attractive for the researcher.
The article is arranged as follows. Section 2 presents four new proposed T-X distribution families, such as the WEE-X family, LEE-X family, LGCEE-X family, and BIIIEE-X family with their quantile functions. In Section 2.1.1, Section 2.2.1, Section 2.3.1 and Section 2.4.1, submodels WEEW of the WEE-X family, LEEW of the LEE-X family, LGCEE of the LGCEE-X family, and BIIIEEW of the BIIIEE-X family are characterized by PDF and FRF plots. The useful expressions for BIIIEE-X family are derived in Section 3. For the BIIIEEW model, we derive few mathematical properties in Section 4. The estimation of BIIEEWD by the maximum likelihood method is explained analytically in Section 5. Section 6 describes the applications of the proposed model to different datasets of cancer disease. Lastly, the conclusion is drawn in Section 7.
2. Some New T-X Distributions Families with Different T Distributions
Based on the classification of the T-X family, two subfamilies can be identified: the first subfamily has different T distributions, but the same X distribution, while the second subfamily has different X distributions but the same T distribution. This section considers the subfamily of different T distributions with their submodels. Here, we considered Weibull, Lomax, Logistic, and Burr III as T distributions and Weibull as an X distribution.

The BIIIM extensively applied in different areas, such as reliability and survival analysis, study of environment, water resources, forestry, meteorology, economics, and medical field, among others. It is also applied to datasets of wages, income, and wealth. For more details on well-known X-classes, review [9,10].

6. Numerical Applications of BIIIEEWD to Disease of Cancer Datasets
This section provide applicability of the new developed BIIIEEWD by empirical datasets consisting cancer diseases, such as blood, neck and head, acute bone, and bladder cancers. The efficiency of BIIIEEWD is checked and compared with other competing models, including generalized odd beta prime Weibull (GOBPW) (Suleiman et al., 2022) [17], gamma log-logistic Weibull (GmLLW) (Foya et al., 2017) [18], gamma generalized modified Weibull (GmGMoW) (Oluyede et al., 2015) [19], beta modified Weibull (BMoW) (Silva et al., 2010) [20], Kumaraswamy modified Weibull (KmMoW) (Cordeiro et al. 2012) [21], and beta log-logistic Weibull (BeLLW) (Makubate et al., 2018) [22].
The PDF of the competing models are defined below:
- The GOBPW model:
- The GmLLW model:
- The GmGMoW model:
- The BMoW model:
- The KmMoW model:
- The BeLLW model:
Here, we use the maximum likelihood (ML) method for parameter estimation of each model and then compare them by the maximum value of log-likelihood () analyzed at ML estimates together with their standard errors (SEs). Furthermore, some criteria, including the Anderson (), Cramer von Mises (), Bayesian information criterion (BIC), and Akaike information criterion (AIC), are considered as conventional goodness-of-fit (GoF) measures. The Kolmogorov–Smirnov (KS) statistic value and its p-value are also calculated for models comparative analysis. We follow the selection rule as follows: the model with the smallest statistics values must be selected as the best one for fitting data. All calculations in study are computed using the AdequacyModel package in R language. R-codes are given in Appendix A. As described, the BIIIEEWD is estimated as being a model to investigate cancer datasets (CDSs), as listed below.
6.1. Blood CDS (BCDS-1)
BCDS-1, which we considered, was previously reported by (Al-Saiary and Bakoban, 2020) [23], from a hospital in Saudia Arabia, which included the ordered life time (in years) of patients suffering blood cancer (leukemia). The data are given in Table 1.
Table 1.
Blood cancer dataset-1.
6.2. Head and Neck CDS (HNCDS-2)
HNCDS-2, used by (Ibrahim et al., 2020) [24], represents the survival time for patients suffering from head and neck cancer. The data are shown in Table 2.
Table 2.
Head and Neck cancer dataset-2.
6.3. Acute Bone CDS (ABCDS-3)
ABCDS-3 is taken from (Mansour et al., 2020) [25], which gives the survival times (in days) of patients that were diagnosed with acute bone cancer. The dataset is shown in Table 3.
Table 3.
Acute Bone cancer dataset-3.
6.4. Bladder CDS (BCDS-4)
BCDS-4 is reported in (Varghese and Jose, 2022) [26], which represents the remission times (in months) of a random sample of bladder cancer patients. The data are shown in Table 4.
Table 4.
Bladder cancer dataset-4.
The descriptive statistics of CDSs are described in Table 5 and box and TTT plots are displayed in Figure 6, Figure 7, Figure 8 and Figure 9. From Table 5, it could be observed that HNCDS-2 and ABCDS-3 are right-skewed with high coefficients of kurtosis, while BCDS-1 is left-skewed. In Figure 7 and Figure 8, box plots indicate that HNCDS-2 and ABCDS-3 have extreme vales statistical behavior. Thus, these are suitable for distributions of extreme values and skewed models.

Furthermore, the results of ML estimates with corresponding SEs of the proposed BIIIEEWD in contrast of the other competing models for CDSs are provided in Table 6, Table 7, Table 8 and Table 9. The considered GoF measures values for CDSs of all candidate models are displayed in Table 10, Table 11, Table 12 and Table 13. From Table 10, Table 11, Table 12 and Table 13, it could be observed that the BIIIEEWD posses the smallest , , , AIC, BIC, and KS values for CDSs. In addition, it has the highest p-value at KS statistics against all fitted competing models. These results suggest that all fitted competing models fit quite well, but the proposed BIIIEEW model provides the best fit. Furthermore, Figure 10, Figure 11, Figure 12 and Figure 13 support these results for CDSs.

7. Conclusions
The field of medical research relies heavily on applications of statistical distributions, where applications have the potential to significantly improve public health, particularly for cancer patients. In this article, therefore, the WEE-X, LEE-X, LGCEE-X, and BIIIEE-X families have been proposed as new families of continuous distributions. Four new models, i.e., WEEW, LEEW, LGCEEW, and BIIIEEW, are derived and explored graphically. In this regard, we characterized the BIIIEE-X family with a five-parameter model, i.e., BIIIEE-Weibull. Various properties of the proposed model have also been derived. Consequently, the proposed model is applied to four distinct cancer data, including bladder, acute bone, neck and head, and blood. GoF measures have been compared with other competing models to see how well the proposed BIIIEEW model performed. Our proposed model have shown superior graphical and numerical results. When it comes to modeling positively skewed lifetime data, particularly cancer research, we hoped that our proposed model would serve as a better alternative to other more conventional distributions.
Using a Bayesian approach, the parameters of the various models derived from these proposed families can be estimated in future work. Besides, other datasets in various regions can be utilized to actually take a look at the adaptability of the determined models. For the bivariate families of distributions, this work can also be extended. Some other flexible distributions should also be considered besides the distribution proposed in this study to fit the data of the real-life case studies.
