Statistics & Probability Letters, 2008, vol. 78, issue 12, 1349-1354

Abstract: A general procedure to characterize bivariate absolutely continuous distributions by using the bivariate failure (hazard) rate function is obtained. The theoretical results are illustrated by obtaining new characterizations of some probability models including the bivariate Gumbel exponential and the bivariate Pareto (Lomax) distributions.
