[http://www.sastat.org.za/journal.htm]0038-271Xhttp://hdl.handle.net/2263/16308ArticleThe Weibullized generalized gamma distribution, which is a very exible distribution due to it richness in parameter structure, is derived by introducing the Weibullizing constant to the generalized gamma distribution. In this paper we first investigate the properties of the Weibullized generalized gamma distribution and then derive densities of composite Weibullized generalized gamma variables.enSouth African Statistical AssociationComposite Weibullized generalized gamma variablesConfluent hypergeometric functionGauss hypergeometric functionKernel approachArticle
