On the incubation distributions of the HIV epidemic

W. Y. Tan

Statistics & Probability Letters, 1993, vol. 18, issue 4, 279-287

Abstract: In this paper some general formula for the HIV incubation distributions are derived. These distributions are derived under two general models and are formulated in matrix functions. In special cases the results reduce to those in Longini et al. (1991, 1992).
