Eliminating bias due to censoring in Kendall’s tau estimators for quasi independence of truncation and failure
Asymptotic behaviors of nearest neighbor kernel density estimator in left-truncated data
depending on the location of the sample points. In this paper, we initially introduce the k-nearest neighbor kernel density estimator in the random left-truncation model, and then prove some of its asymptotic behaviors...
Uniform limit theorems under random truncation
In this pap er we study uniform versions of the two limit theorems in random left
uncation mo del (RLTM). The law of large numb ers (LLN) and the central limit theorem
CLT) have b een obtained under the ...
A Berry-Esseen Type Bound in Kernel Density Estimation for a Random Left-Truncation Model
In this paper we derive a Berry-Esseen type bound for the kernel density estimator of a random left truncated model, in which each datum ( Y ) is randomly left truncated and it is sampled if Y ≥ T , where T is the truncation random variable...
A Berry-Esseen type bound for the kernel density estimator based on a weakly dependent and randomly left truncated data
In many applications, the available data come from a sampling scheme that causes
loss of information in terms of left truncation. In some cases, in addition to left
truncation, the data are weakly dependent. In this paper we...
Weak convergence of TJW product-limit estimator under association
Estimation of a survival function and its asymptotic behaviors under random left truncation and right censor model had been extensively studied in the five past decades. In application, the assumption of independence between cases is often not true...
Asymptotic normality of the truncation probability estimator for truncated dependent data
In some long term studies, a series of dependent and possibly
truncated lifetimes may be observed. Suppose that the lifetimes
have a common marginal distribution function. In the
left-truncation model, one observes data (X...
Estimation with left-truncated and right censored data: A comparison study
Estimation based on the left-truncated and right randomly censored data arising from a general family of distributions is considered. In the
special case, when the random variables satisfy a proportional hazard model, the maximum...
Strong Convergence Rates of the Product-limit Estimator for Left Truncated and Right Censored Data under Association
Non-parametric estimation of a survival function from left truncated data subject to right censoring has been extensively studied in the literature. It is commonly assumed in such studies that the lifetime variables are a sample of independent...
