Abstract

Necessity of the use of more rich family discrete distributions is practically observable. In this paper, we study about new family of discrete distributions, as Inflated Parameter distributions. Then , we use the application of these distributions for data modeling of Insurance claims and indicate that these distributions have more appropriate approximation then corresponding distributions.
