Nonparametric Estimation of a Bivariate Mean Residual Life Function
二元平均剩余寿命函数的非参数估计
In many statistical studies involving failure data, mean residual life function is of prime importance. The bivariate mean residual life function has received relatively less attention in the literature. In this article we use a simple nonparametric estimator for a bivariate mean residual life function. The estimator is shown to be uniformly strongly consistent and, on proper normalization, converges weakly to a zero-mean bivariate Gaussian process. Numerical studies…
