Smooth semi‐nonparametric (SNP) estimation of the cumulative incidence function
This paper presents a novel approach to estimation of the cumulative incidence function in the presence of competing risks. The underlying statistical model is specified via a mixture factorization of the joint distribution of the event type and the time to the event. The time to event distributions conditional on the event type are modeled using smooth semi-nonparametric densities. One strengt...
متن کاملImpact of and Correction for Outcome Misclassification in Cumulative Incidence Estimation
Cohort studies and clinical trials may involve multiple events. When occurrence of one of these events prevents the observance of another, the situation is called "competing risks". A useful measure in such studies is the cumulative incidence of an event, which is useful in evaluating interventions or assessing disease prognosis. When outcomes in such studies are subject to misclassification, t...
متن کاملNonparametric Regression Estimation under Kernel Polynomial Model for Unstructured Data
The nonparametric estimation(NE) of kernel polynomial regression (KPR) model is a powerful tool to visually depict the effect of covariates on response variable, when there exist unstructured and heterogeneous data. In this paper we introduce KPR model that is the mixture of nonparametric regression models with bootstrap algorithm, which is considered in a heterogeneous and unstructured framewo...
متن کاملNonparametric function estimation under Fourier-oscillating noise
In the popular deconvolution problem, the goal is to estimate a curve f from data that only allow direct estimation of another curve g, the convolution of f and a so-called error density. Unlike the standard assumption in deconvolution, we consider a more general setting where the characteristic function of the error density can have zeros. This problem is important as the characteristic functi...
متن کاملPartially identified prevalence estimation under misclassification using the kappa coefficient
Many empirical studies are confronted with severe misclassification error. While interest is in the realizations of a variable Y (e.g. disease yes/no), only a related variable Y ∗ (e.g. the outcome of a diagnostic test) can be observed. Even in the case of simple prevalence estimation, naive estimation, neglecting the fundamental difference between Y and Y ∗, may be considerably biased ([1], [2...
