Full Likelihood Inferences in the Cox Model: an Empirical Likelihood Approach
For the regression parameter β0 in the Cox model, there have been several estimators constructed based on various types of approximated likelihood, but none of them has demonstrated small-sample advantage over Cox’s partial likelihood estimator. In this article, we derive the full likelihood function for (β0, F0), where F0 is the baseline distribution in the Cox model. Using the empirical likel...
متن کاملInference in the Symmetric Location Model: an Empirical Likelihood Approach
An empirical likelihood approach with an increasing number of estimated constraints is developed for inference in the symmetric location model. We obtain a Wilks’ Theorem for the resulting empirical likelihood and uniform local asymptotic normality. The former is used to obtain confidence regions and tests for the center of symmetry. The latter is used to show that the maximum empirical likelih...
متن کاملEmpirical Likelihood Inference for the Cox Model with Time-dependent Coefficients via Local Partial Likelihood.
The Cox model with time-dependent coefficients has been studied by a number of authors recently. In this paper, we develop empirical likelihood (EL) pointwise confidence regions for the time-dependent regression coefficients via local partial likelihood smoothing. The EL simultaneous confidence bands for a linear combination of the coefficients are also derived based on the strong approximation...
متن کاملEmpirical Likelihood Approach and its Application on Survival Analysis
A number of nonparametric methods exist when studying the population and its parameters in the situation when the distribution is unknown. Some of them such as "resampling bootstrap method" are based on resampling from an initial sample. In this article empirical likelihood approach is introduced as a nonparametric method for more efficient use of auxiliary information to construct...
متن کاملEmpirical likelihood inferences for the semiparametric additive isotonic regression
AMS subject classifications: 62G15 62G08 62F30 a b s t r a c t We consider the (profile) empirical likelihood inferences for the regression parameter (and its any sub-component) in the semiparametric additive isotonic regression model where each additive nonparametric component is assumed to be a monotone function. In theory, we show that the empirical log-likelihood ratio for the regression pa...
