Estimation of the median survival time under random censorship
Estimation of the median survival time under random censorship
An estimator of the median survival time m is constructed from survival data subject to random right censorship.For a broad class of nonparametric survival and censoring distributions, the asymptotic theory of the estimator is derived including its consistency in p-th mean, asymptotic normality, and a.s.convergence. 1Introduction.In several longitudinal studies the …
