Popis: A new member from the T − X family of distribution called the Gumbel-Burr XII (GUBXII) distribution is introduced. This was realized by adopting the logit transformation of the cumulative distribution function of the Burr XII random variable, while taking the Gumbel distribution as the generator. An account of some mathematical properties of the new distribution including the maximum likelihood estimation of its parameters is presented. A real data set is further used to test the applicability of the new distribution.
