Bivariate quantile functions, Hazard and mean residual quantile functions, Bivariate linear hazard (mean residual) quantile function distributionAbstract
In this paper we propose a new definition of bivariate quantile function suited for reliability modelling and illustrate its applications. The bivariate hazard and mean residual quantile functions are defined and their properties are studied. Examples of generating new quantile functions and application of the results to model data are provided.
