Empirical Likelihood Analysis for the Heteroscedastic Accelerated Failure Time Model
In this manuscript, we discuss the distinction of two types of data generating scheme for the accelerated failure time model. We identify two different empirical likelihood formulations under random right censoring, case-wise and residual-wise, each reflecting the relevant features of the stochastic model assumed to have generated the data. We specifically propose the case-wise empirical likeli...
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 کاملThe accelerated failure time model under biased sampling.
Chen (2009, Biometrics) studies the semi-parametric accelerated failure time model for data that are size biased. Chen considers only the uncensored case and uses hazard-based estimation methods originally developed for censored observations. However, for uncensored data, a simple linear regression on the log scale is more natural and provides better estimators.
متن کاملAccelerated failure time model under general biased sampling scheme.
Right-censored time-to-event data are sometimes observed from a (sub)cohort of patients whose survival times can be subject to outcome-dependent sampling schemes. In this paper, we propose a unified estimation method for semiparametric accelerated failure time models under general biased estimating schemes. The proposed estimator of the regression covariates is developed upon a bias-offsetting ...
متن کاملPartial likelihood and estimating equations
Consider a regression model for discrete-time stochastic processes, with a (partially speciied) model for the conditional distribution of the response given the covariate and the past observations. Suppose we also have some knowledge about how the parameter of interest aaects the conditional distribution of the covariate given the past. We assume that these two model assumptions give rise to tw...
