Cure - rate estimation under Case - 1 interval censoring Running title : Cure - rate under interval censoring
We consider nonparametric estimation of cure-rate based on mixture model under Case-1 interval censoring. We show that the nonparametric maximum-likelihood estimator (NPMLE) of cure-rate is non-unique as well as inconsistent , and propose two estimators based on the NPMLE of the distribution function under this censoring model. We present a cross-validation method for choosing a 'cut-off' point...
متن کاملTropical Rain Classification and Estimation of Rain from Z-r (reflectivity-rain Rate) Relationships
A Z-R relation is derived using a data set which consists of nine rain events selected from Singapore’s drop size distribution. Rain events are separated into convective and stratiform types of rain using two methods: the Gamache-Houze method, a simple threshold technique, and the Atlas-Ulbrich method. In the Atlas-Ulbrich method, the variability of the rain integral parameters R, Z, Nw, D0 and...
متن کاملModel selection for hazard rate estimation in presence of censoring
Abstract This note presents an estimator of the hazard rate function based on right censored data. A collection of estimators is built from a regression-type contrast, in a general collection of linear models. Then, a penalised model selection procedure provides an estimator which satisfies an oracle inequality. In particular, we can prove that it is adaptive in the minimax sense on Hölder spaces.
متن کاملAdaptive estimation of the hazard rate with multiplicative censoring
We propose an adaptive estimation procedure of the hazard rate of a random variable X in the multiplicative censoring model, Y = XU , with U ∼ U([0, 1]) independent of X. The variable X is not directly observed: an estimator is built from a sample {Y1, ..., Yn} of copies of Y . It is obtained by minimisation of a contrast function over a class of general nested function spaces which can be gene...
متن کاملOptimal rain rate estimation algorithm for light and heavy rain using polarimetric measurements
In this paper, we propose an ameliorated physically-based rain rate estimation algorithm for semi-arid regions using the Rayleigh approximation. The proposed algorithm simultaneously uses the reflectivity and the specific differential phase to provide an accurate estimation for both small and large rain rates. In order to validate the proposed estimator, simulated polarimetric rain rate data ba...
