%A Fabrizio Durante %A Rachele Foschi %I Springer %D 2013 %B Synergies of Soft Computing and Statistics for Intelligent Data Analysis %X We investigate the dependence properties of a vector of residual lifetimes by means of the copula associated with the conditional distribution function. In particular, the evolution of positive dependence properties (like quadrant dependence and total positivity) are analyzed and expressions for the evolution of measures of association are given. %L eprints1368 %K Association measures; copulas; positive dependence; residual lifetimes %T Evolution of the Dependence of Residual Lifetimes %S Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing %N 190 %R 10.1007/978-3-642-33042-1_33 %P 305-312
