We consider the e cient estimation of a bivariate distribution function (DF) under the class of radially symmetric distributions and propose an estimator based on the mean of the empirical distribution and survival functions. We obtain the mean and variance of the estimator and show that it has an a
## For the following mixed bivariate probability distribution between a discrete random variable X and a continuous random variable A: h(x, A) = (Pq)"p"A"-' exp {-A(@ +p)}LF'(-Aqq )/IYcw), where a, p>o, O<p=l-q<l, x=0,1,2 ,..., O<A<y and 21: h(x, A)dA = 1, a canonical expansion is obtained in term
Let (T 1 , T 2 ) be gap times corresponding to two consecutive events, which are observed subject to random right-censoring. In this paper, a semiparametric estimator of the bivariate distribution function of (T 1 , T 2 ) and, more generally, of a functional E [j(T 1 ,T 2 )] is proposed. We assume t
