Title: | A copula-graphic estimator for the conditional survival function under dependent censoring | Authors: | BRAEKERS, Roel VERAVERBEKE, Noel |
Issue Date: | 2005 | Publisher: | CANADIAN JOURNAL STATISTICS | Source: | CANADIAN JOURNAL OF STATISTICS-REVUE CANADIENNE DE STATISTIQUE, 33(3). p. 429-447 | Abstract: | Rivest & Wells (2001) showed that in situations where the dependence between a lifetime and a censoring variable can be modeled by a given Archimedean copula, the copula-graphic estimator of Zheng & Klein (1995) has an explicit form. The authors extend this work to the fixed design regression case. They show that the copula-graphic estimator then has an asymptotic representation and a Gaussian limit. They also assess the influence of a misspecified copula function on the performance of the estimator. Their developments are illustrated with data on the survival of the Atlantic halibut. | Notes: | Univ Hasselt, BE-3590 Diepenbeek, Belgium.Braekers, R, Univ Hasselt, Agoralaan,Bldg D, BE-3590 Diepenbeek, Belgium.roel.braekers@uhasselt.be noel.veraverbeke@uhasselt.be | Keywords: | Archimedean copula; asymptotic representation; copula-graphic estimator; dependent censoring; fixed design regression; sensitivity analysis; weak convergence | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/2064 | ISSN: | 0319-5724 | e-ISSN: | 1708-945X | ISI #: | 000232749700008 | Category: | A1 | Type: | Journal Contribution | Validations: | ecoom 2006 |
