چکیده
The SiZer method is extended to nonparametric hazard estimation and also to censored density and hazard estimation. The new method allows quick, visual statistical inference about the important issue of statistically significant increases and decreases in the smooth curve estimate. This extension has required the opening of a new avenue of research on the interface between statistical inference and scale space.

SiZer for Censored Density and Hazard Estimation
The SiZer method is extended to nonparametric hazard estimation and also to censored density and hazard estimation. The new method allows quick, visual statistical inference about the important issue of statistically significant increases and decreases in the smooth curve estimate. Instead of being straightforward, this extension has required the opening of a new avenue of research on the inter...
متن کاملBayes Interval Estimation on the Parameters of the Weibull Distribution for Complete and Censored Tests
A method for constructing confidence intervals on parameters of a continuous probability distribution is developed in this paper. The objective is to present a model for an uncertainty represented by parameters of a probability density function. As an application, confidence intervals for the two parameters of the Weibull distribution along with their joint confidence interval are derived. The...
متن کاملDensity Estimation of Censored Data with Infinite-Order Kernels
Higher-order accurate density estimation under random right censorship is achieved using kernel estimators from a family of infinite-order kernels. A compatible bandwidth selection procedure is also proposed that automatically adapts to level of smoothness of the underlying lifetime density. The combination of infinite-order kernels with the new bandwidth selection procedure produces a consider...

This report studies local asymptotics of P-splines with pth degree B-splines and a mth order difference penalty. Earlier work with p and m restricted is extended to the general case. Asymptotically, penalized splines are kernel estimators with equivalent kernels depending on m, but not on p. A central limit theorem provides simple expressions for the asymptotic mean and variance. Provided it is...
متن کاملNon-Bayesian Estimation and Prediction under Weibull Interval Censored Data
In this paper, a one-sample point predictor of the random variable X is studied. X is the occurrence of an event in any successive visits $L_i$ and $R_i$ :i=1,2…,n (interval censoring). Our proposed method is based on finding the expected value of the conditional distribution of X given $L_i$ and $R_i$ (i=1,2…,n). To make the desired prediction, our approach is on the basis of approximating the...
