Abstract A maximum likelihood estimation procedure is developed for a bivariate frailty regression model, in which … survival times of twin births (both monozygotic and dizygotic), with genetic frailty behavior (which is unknown and random) of …

Abstract In this paper, we propose a new bivariateWeibull distribution and derive estimation and test procedures based on censored samples with common covariates. The study of bivariate Weibull was motivated by interesting biometrical applications. The maximum likelihood estimators for the model...

Abstract In this paper, we propose a new bivariate Weibull regression model based on censored samples with common covariates. There are some interesting biometrical situations which motivate the study of a bivariate Weibull regression model of the proposed type. A procedure for obtaining the...

Abstract In this paper, we propose a bivariate Weibull regression models for survival time derived from the bivariate exponential distribution of Freund [Freund, Journal of the Amer. Statist. Assoc. 56: 971-77, 1961]. There are some biometrical applications which motivated to study these...
