Some Classes of Multivariate Life Distributions in Discrete Time

N. Unnikrishnan Nair and G. Asha

Journal of Multivariate Analysis, 1997, vol. 62, issue 2, 181-189

Abstract: New classes of multivariate survival distribution functions based on monotonic behaviour of a multivariate failure rate are developed in the discrete set up. Relationship among the classes along with multivariate geometric distributions that act as boundaries of the various classes are identified.
