Abstract :
In this paper we have reviewed three models one on: Bayesian frailty Bivariate Normal model, second on: Bayesian frailty estimation of Multivariate Normal model with prior Multivariate Normal model and third on: Bayesian frailty estimation of Compound Poisson model with prior frailty model as Poisson. In all these models Bayesian frailty estimators have been obtained.

Key-Words / Index Term :
Bayesian frailty model, Bivariate Normal model, Compound Poisson model, Multivariate Normal model, Prior frailty model
