Families of Multivariate Distributions
多元分布族
For many years there has been an interest in families of bivariate distributions with marginals as parameters. Genest and MacKay (1986a,b) showed that several such families that appear in the literature can be derived by a unified method. A similar conclusion is obtained in this article through the use of mixture models. These models might be regarded as multivariate proportional hazards models with random constants of proportionality. The mixture models are useful for two…
