M.R Zaman, M.K. Roy and N. Akhter

Abstract: In this study, Chi-Square mixture of Erlang distribution has been defined and determines some characteristics of the distribution. Let X follows a chi-square distribution with v d.f. and Y follows a erlang distribution with parameters α and β then Z = f (x,y) follows chi square mixture of Erlang distribution with parameters v, α and β. The mean, variance, skewness and kurtosis of the distribution be respectively. This distribution is always positively skewed and leptokurtic for any value of the parameters.
