Abstract: The exponentiated generalized Gull alpha power exponential distribution is an extension of the exponential distribution that can model data characterized by various shapes of the hazard function. However, change point problem has not been studied for this distribution. In this study, the change point detection of the parameters of the exponentiated generalized Gull alpha power exponential distribution is studied using the modified information criterion. In addition, the binary segmentation procedure is used to identify multiple change point locations. The assumption is that all the parameters of the EGGAPE distributions are considered changeable. Simulation study is conducted to illustrate the power of the modified information criterion in detecting change point in the parameters with different sample sizes. Three applications related to COVID-19 data are used to demonstrate the applicability of the MIC in detecting change point in real life scenario.
