Abstract: Abstract We discuss here the problem of bivariate random scaling. Both direct and inverse problems of bivariate random scaling are solved by two methods. While the first method is a distributional one, the second method is an indirect one associated with bivariate Mellin transform. Finally, we use bivariate random scaling for some statistical and simulational applications.
