We present some special models and investigate the asymptotes. The new density function can be expressed as a linear combination of exponentiated densities based on the same baseline distribution. Explicit expressions for the ordinary and incomplete moments, generating functions and order statistics, which hold for any baseline model, are determined. Further, we discuss the estimation of the model parameters by maximum likelihood and present a simulation study based on maximum likelihood estimation. A regression model based on proposed model was introduced. Finally, three applications to real data were provided to illustrate the potentiality of the family of distributions.</p&gt;}, number={1}, journal={Statistics, Optimization & Information Computing}, author={Esmaeili, Hamid and Lak, Fazlollah and Altun, Emrah}, year={2020}, month={Feb.}, pages={17-35} }
