Estimating extreme quantiles under random truncation
The goal of this paper is to provide estimators of the tail index and extreme quantiles of a heavy-tailed random variable when it is righttruncated. The weak consistency and asymptotic normality of the estimators are established. The finite sample performance of our estimators is illustrated on a simulation study and we showcase our estimators on a real set of failure data. keywords: Asymptotic...
متن کاملEstimating a treatment effect under biased sampling.
Methods are presented for the estimation of a treatment effect based on before- and after-treatment values, where for ethical reasons all and only those patients are treated whose before-treatment values exceed a given constant.
متن کاملAdditive hazards model with multivariate failure time data
Marginal additive hazards models are considered for multivariate survival data in which individuals may experience events of several types and there may also be correlation between individuals. Estimators are proposed for the parameters of such models and for the baseline hazard functions. The estimators of the regression coefficients are shown asymptotically to follow a multivariate normal dis...
متن کاملA Bayesian Approach for Estimating Extreme Quantiles under a Semiparametric Mixture Model By
In this paper we propose an additive mixture model, where one component is the Generalized Pareto distribution (GPD) that allows us to estimate extreme quantiles. GPD plays an important role in modeling extreme quantiles for the wide class of distributions belonging to the maximum domain of attraction of an extreme value model. One of the main diffi culty with this modeling approach is the choi...
متن کاملPredicting the Survival Time for Bladder Cancer Using an Additive Hazards Model in Microarray Data
BACKGROUND One substantial part of microarray studies is to predict patients' survival based on their gene expression profile. Variable selection techniques are powerful tools to handle high dimensionality in analysis of microarray data. However, these techniques have not been investigated in competing risks setting. This study aimed to investigate the performance of four sparse variable select...
