A copula model for dependentcompeting risks

Many popular estimators for duration models require independent competing risks orindependent censoring. In contrast, copula based estimators are also consistent in presence ofdependent competing risks. In this paper we suggest a computationally convenient extensionof the Copula Graphic Estimator (Zheng and Klein, 1995) to a model with more than twodependent competing risks...
