Empirical Processes Associated with $V$-Statistics and a Class of Estimators Under Random Censoring
A class of empirical processes associated with $V$-statistics ($V$-empirical process) under random censoring, and a class of nonparametric estimators based on the corresponding quantile process are defined. The $V$-empirical process is the censored data analogue of the $U$-empirical process considered by Silverman (1976, 1983). The class of estimators is the …
