An augmented inverse probability weighted survival function estimator
نویسندگان
چکیده
We analyze an augmented inverse probability of non-missingness weighted estimator of a survival function for a missing censoring indicator model, in the absence and presence of left truncation. The estimator improves upon its precursor but is still not the best in terms of achieving minimal asymptotic variance.

Adjusted Kaplan-Meier estimator and log-rank test with inverse probability of treatment weighting for survival data.
Estimation and group comparison of survival curves are two very common issues in survival analysis. In practice, the Kaplan-Meier estimates of survival functions may be biased due to unbalanced distribution of confounders. Here we develop an adjusted Kaplan-Meier estimator (AKME) to reduce confounding effects using inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW). Each observation is weighted ...
متن کاملA generalized inverse censoring weighted survival function estimator
We investigate an inverse censoring weighted estimator of a survival function when the data are doubly censored but the left censoring is always observed. The estimator reduces to its right censored version when there is no left censoring.
متن کاملSemiparametric Models for Left Truncation and Right Censoring with Missing Censoring Indicators
We derive the asymptotic distributions of a semiparametric Dikta-type estimator and an inverse probability weighted type estimator of a survival function for a missing censoring indicator left truncated model and provide a theoretical comparison study.
متن کاملDoubly robust estimation and causal inference in longitudinal studies with dropout and truncation by death.
Motivated by aging research, we propose an estimator of the effect of a time-varying exposure on an outcome in longitudinal studies with dropout and truncation by death. We use an inverse-probability weighted (IPW) estimator to derive a doubly robust augmented inverse-probability weighted (AIPW) estimator. IPW estimation involves weights for the exposure mechanism, dropout, and mortality; AIPW ...
متن کاملQuantile Regression for Competing Risks Data with Missing Cause of Failure.
This paper considers generalized linear quantile regression for competing risks data when the failure type may be missing. Two estimation procedures for the regression co-efficients, including an inverse probability weighted complete-case estimator and an augmented inverse probability weighted estimator, are discussed under the assumption that the failure type is missing at random. The proposed...
