Nonparametric Estimation of the Bivariate Survival Function
Randomly left or right truncated observations occur when one is concerned with estimation of the distribution of time between two events and when one only observes the time if one of the two events falls in a xed time-window, so that longer survival times have higher probability to be part of the sample than short survival times. In important AIDS-applications the time between seroconversion an...
متن کاملNonparametric Estimation of the Bivariate Survival Function with Truncated Data
Randomly left or right truncated observations occur when one is concerned with estimation of the distribution of time between two events and when one only observes the time if one of the two events falls in a fixed time-window, so that longer survival times have higher probability to be part of the sample than short survival times. In important AIDSapplications the time between seroconversion a...
متن کاملEstimation of the Survival Function for Negatively Dependent Random Variables
Let be a stationary sequence of pair wise negative quadrant dependent random variables with survival function {,1}nXn?F(x)=P[X>x]. The empirical survival function ()nFx based on 12,,...,nXXX is proposed as an estimator for ()nFx. Strong consistency and point wise as well as uniform of ()nFx are discussed
متن کاملWavelets and Nonparametric Function Estimation
The problem of nonparametric function estimation has received a substantial amount of attention in the statistical literature over the last 15 years. To a very large extent, the literature has described kernel-based convolution smoothing solutions to the problems of probability density estimation and nonlinear regression. Among the subcultures within this literature has been a substantial effor...
متن کاملNonparametric survival estimation using prognostic longitudinal covariates.
One of the primary problems facing statisticians who work with survival data is the loss of information that occurs with right-censored data. This research considers trying to recover some of this endpoint information through the use of a prognostic covariate which is measured on each individual. We begin by defining a survival estimate which uses time-dependent covariates to more precisely get...
