The Burr distribution is one of the most important and commonly used probability distribution in statistical analysis. In this study, a new class of univariate distribution based on the Burr random variable is proposed. Characteristics of the proposed neutrosophic Burr distribution (NBD) are discussed. The neutrosophic form of the proposed distribution is particularly advantageous for handling the imprecise and uncertain information commonly present in real-world problems. The statistical properties and the shapes of corresponding probability density and cumulative density functions are illustrated. Some important functions commonly utilized in survival studies are formulated within neutrosophic structures. General expressions for other distributional properties of the proposed NBD are developed under neutrosophic framework. The inverse cumulative method is used to find random numbers from the suggested model. Maximum likelihood method for estimating the model parameters is described, and the performance of estimated parameters are assessed using a Monte Carlo simulation experiment. Finally, the paper demonstrates the practical use of the proposed model through a real-world application of malaria cases per thousand population at risk.
