Abstract
This note develops a generalized ‐variate hazard function for censored data in survival analysis. It introduces a generalized recursive formula, extending the bivariate and trivariate cases introduced by Clayton and Cuzick (1985, Journal of the Royal Statistical Society: Series A (General), 148(2):82–108) and Kittani (1995, Journal of Mathematical Sciences, 67–74), respectively. The newly developed function is explicitly specified by association parameters and marginal hazard functions.
