eng Abstract:
The contribution deals with the problem of competing risks (of competing events) in the statistical events occurrence analysis. In such a setting, one event excludes the occurrence of the other. Moreover, their latency may be dependent. Therefore, instead the analysis of marginal distributions (or intensities) of events, it is more convenient to model their real incidence, via so called incidence function. We present methods of such an incidence analysis and illustrate it on an example with unemployment data.
