The data consists of multivariate failure times under right random censorship. By the kernel smoothing technique, convolutions of cumulative multivariate hazard functions suggest estimators of the so-called multivariate hazard functions. We establish strong i.i.d. representations and uniform...

[fre] Les rythmes de travail hors norme. Travailler sept ou huit heures par jour, du lundi au vendredi et aux mêmes horaires toute l'année, demeure encore la norme. Cependant, trois actifs sur dix ont connu, en 1 995, un rythme de travail autre : irrégularité des jours ou, des horaires de...

[fre] Les horaires de travail dans le couple. Les horaires de travail dépendent fortement des caractéristiques individuelles, notamment du sexe et de la catégorie socioprofessionnelle, mais également des: caractéristiques familiales et de celles du conjoint. Ainsi, pour des couples de...

We introduce new models for analyzing the mortality dependence between individuals in a couple. The mortality risk dependence is usually taken into account in the actuarial literature by introducing an Archimedean copula. This practice implies symmetric effects on the remaining lifetime of the...

A density deconvolution problem with unknown distribution of the errors is considered. To make the target density identifiable, one has to assume that some additional information on the noise is available. We consider two different models: the framework where some additional sample of the pure...

This chapter surveys advances in the field of Bayesian computation over the past twenty years, from a purely personnal viewpoint, hence containing some ommissions given the spectrum of the field. Monte Carlo, MCMC and ABC themes are thus covered here, while the rapidly expanding area of particle...
