eng Abstract:
This study is concerned with the analysis of dependence of random variables - latent times to events, in a competing risks case. We discuss first the problem of identifiability of marginal and joint distributions of competing random variables. Then, the copula models are utilized in order to express the dependence. Finally, the Gauss copula is used to solution of a real example with unemployment data.
