Empirical Likelihood Inference for the Cox Model with Time-dependent Coefficients via Local Partial Likelihood.
The Cox model with time-dependent coefficients has been studied by a number of authors recently. In this paper, we develop empirical likelihood (EL) pointwise confidence regions for the time-dependent regression coefficients via local partial likelihood smoothing. The EL simultaneous confidence bands for a linear combination of the coefficients are also derived based on the strong approximation...
متن کاملEmpirical likelihood inference for the accelerated failure time model
Accelerated failure time (AFT) models are useful regression tools to study the association between a survival time and covariates. Semiparametric inference procedures have been proposed in an extensive literature. Among them, Fygenson and Ritov (1994) proposed an estimating equation which is monotone in the regression parameter and has some excellent properties. However, there exists a serious ...
متن کاملInference Inference for theMean Residual Life Function via Empirical Likelihood
In addition to the distribution function, the mean residual life (MRL) function is the other important function which can be used to characterize a lifetime in survival analysis and reliability. For inference on the MRL function, some procedures have been proposed in the literature. However, the coverage accuracy of such procedures may be low when the sample size is small. In this article, an e...
متن کاملWeighted empirical likelihood inference
A weighted empirical likelihood approach is proposed to take account of the heteroscedastic structure of the data. The resulting weighted empirical likelihood ratio statistic is shown to have a limiting chisquare distribution. A limited simulation study shows that the associated con*dence intervals for a population mean or a regression coe+cient have more accurate coverage probabilities and mor...
