Kaplan–Meier Estimator
The Kaplan–Meier estimator is a nonparametric estimator which may be used to estimate the survival distribution function from censored data. The estimator may be obtained as the limiting case of the classical actuarial (life table) estimator, and it seems to have been first proposed by Böhmer [2]. It was, however, lost sight of by later researchers and not investigated further until the importa...
متن کاملAsymptotic Properties of Kaplan-meier Estimator for Censored Dependent Data
In some long term studies, a series of dependent and possibly censored failure times may be observed. Suppose that the failure times have a common marginal distribution function, and inferences about it are of our interest. The main result of this paper is that of providing, under certain regularity conditions, the Kaplan-Meier estimator can be expressed as the mean of random variables, with a ...

متن کاملSource Code Survival with the Kaplan Meier Estimator
The presence of dead code may affect the comprehensibility, the readability, and the size of source code so increasing the effort and the cost for maintenance. The elimination of dead code needs a huge cost and effort for recognizing and eliminating code that is not effectively used. The goal of this work consists in defining an approach based on the Kaplan Meier estimator to analyze dead code....
متن کاملOn the bounds in Poisson approximation for independent geometric distributed random variables
The main purpose of this note is to establish some bounds in Poisson approximation for row-wise arrays of independent geometric distributed random variables using the operator method. Some results related to random sums of independent geometric distributed random variables are also investigated.
