Abstract

We introduce a univariate generalized form of the Gumbel distribution via two-sided distribution structure. We obtain its some properties such as special cases, density shapes, hazard rate function and moments. We give the maximum likelihood estimators of this two-sided generalized Gumbel distribution with an algorithm. Finally, a real data application based on air pollution data is given to demonstrate that it has real data modeling potential.
