Nonparametric estimation of the bivariate recurrence time distribution.
This article considers statistical models in which two different types of events, such as the diagnosis of a disease and the remission of the disease, occur alternately over time and are observed subject to right censoring. We propose nonparametric estimators for the joint distribution of bivariate recurrence times and the marginal distribution of the first recurrence time. In general, the marg...
متن کاملNonparametric Estimation of the Bivariate Survival Function
Randomly left or right truncated observations occur when one is concerned with estimation of the distribution of time between two events and when one only observes the time if one of the two events falls in a xed time-window, so that longer survival times have higher probability to be part of the sample than short survival times. In important AIDS-applications the time between seroconversion an...
متن کاملNonparametric copula estimation under bivariate censoring
In this paper, we consider nonparametric copula inference under bivariate censoring. Based on an estimator of the joint cumulative distribution function, we define a discrete and two smooth estimators of the copula. The construction that we propose is valid for a large number of estimators of the distribution function, and therefore for a large number of bivariate censoring frameworks. Under so...
متن کاملNonparametric Estimation of the Bivariate Survival Function with Truncated Data
Randomly left or right truncated observations occur when one is concerned with estimation of the distribution of time between two events and when one only observes the time if one of the two events falls in a fixed time-window, so that longer survival times have higher probability to be part of the sample than short survival times. In important AIDSapplications the time between seroconversion a...
متن کاملNonparametric estimation of the chord length distribution
The distribution of the length of a typical chord of a stationary random set is an interesting feature of the set’s whole distribution. We give a nonparametric estimator of the chord length distribution and prove its strong consistency. We report on a simulation experiment in which our estimator compared favorably to a reduced sample estimator. Both estimators are illustrated by applying them t...
