Abstract

In these paper we introduce a new class of exponential sums from which various known as well as new exponential sums are generated. Then a class of generalized Poisson distributions is defined (GPDs). Some well known and new distributions are obtained from GPDs. Some recurrence relations of the parameters of these distributions is studied. The suitability of these distributions is illustrated through some real life data.
