Abstract
Transmuted distributions have gained attention in statistical modeling due to their flexibility and ability to enhance the performance of baseline distributions. In this article, we introduce the transmuted one-parameter Sarhan-Tadj-Hamilton distribution. Various structural properties of the proposed distribution, such as explicit expressions, stochastic orders, moments, and order statistics are derived. Six parameter estimation methods are examined, with their relative performance compared through Monte Carlo simulations and ranked across different sample sizes. The proposed model is further validated using multiple real data sets, demonstrating its practical flexibility.
