| Abstract: | The power-generalized Weibull probability distribution is very often used in survival analysis mainly because different values of its parameters allow for various shapes of hazard rate such as monotone increasing/decreasing, ∩-shaped, ∪-shaped, or constant. Modified chi-squared tests based on maximum likelihood estimators of parameters that are shown to be  | |
