Abstract: | The paper considers the problem of estimating the dependence function of a bivariate extreme survival function with standard exponential marginals. Nonparametric estimators for the dependence function are proposed and their strong uniform convergence under suitable conditions is demonstrated. Comparisons of the proposed estimators with other estimators are made in terms of bias and mean squared error. Several real data sets from various applications are used to illustrate the procedures. |
