An asymptotic linear representation for the Breslow estimator
We provide an asymptotic linear representation for the Breslow estimator for the baseline cumulative hazard function in the Cox model. The representation consists of an average of independent random variables and a term involving the difference between the maximum partial likelihood estimator and the underlying regression parameter. The order of the remainder term is arbitrarily close to n−1.
متن کاملOn the Breslow estimator.
In his discussion of Cox's (1972) paper on proportional hazards regression, Breslow (1972) provided the maximum likelihood estimator for the cumulative baseline hazard function. This estimator is commonly used in practice. The estimator has also been highly valuable in the further development of Cox regression and semiparametric inference with censored data. The present paper describes the Bres...
متن کاملOn the Breslow-Holubkov estimator.
Breslow and Holubkov (J Roy Stat Soc B 59:447-461 1997a) developed semiparametric maximum likelihood estimation for two-phase studies with a case-control first phase under a logistic regression model and noted that, apart for the overall intercept term, it was the same as the semiparametric estimator for two-phase studies with a prospective first phase developed in Scott and Wild (Biometrica 84...
متن کاملAn easy approach to the Robins-Breslow-Greenland variance estimator
The Mantel-Haenszel estimate for the odds ratio (and its logarithm) in stratified case control studies lacked a generally acceptable variance estimate for many years. The Robins-Breslow-Greenland estimate has met this need, but standard textbooks still do not provide an explanation of how it is derived. This article provides an accessible derivation which demonstrates the link between the Robin...
متن کاملThe Log-linear Group-Lasso Estimator and Its Asymptotic Properties
We define the group-lasso estimator for the natural parameters of the exponential families of distributions representing hierarchical log-linear models under multinomial sampling scheme. Such estimator arises as the solution of a convex penalized likelihood optimization problem based on the group-lasso penalty. We illustrate how it is possible to construct an estimator of the underlying log-lin...
