文章给出了右删失左截断数据半参数模型下的风险率函数估计,讨论了风险率函数估计的渐近性质,获得了这些估计的渐近正态性,对数律和重对数律.由于假定删失机制服从半参数模型下,从而知道模型的更多信息,因此对于给出参数的极大似然估计,可以改进风险率函数估计的渐近性质.也就是说,删失数据模型具有半参数的辅助信息下, 风险率函数估计的渐近方差比通常的完全非参数的估计的渐近方差更小.这说明加入了额外的信息提高了风险率函数估计的效率.

Asymptotic Normality of a Combined Regression Estimator

In this paper, we propose a combined regression estimator by using a parametric estimator and a nonparametric estimator of the regression function. The asymptotic distribution of this estimator is obtained for cases where the parametric regression model is correct, incorrect, and approximately correct. These distributional results imply that the combined estimator is superior to the kernel estimator in the sense that it can never do worse than the kernel estimator in terms of convergence rate and it has the same convergence rate as the parametric estimator in the case where the parametric model is correct. Unlike the parametric estimator, the combined estimator is robust to model misspecification. In addition, we also establish the asymptotic distribution of the estimator of the weight given to the parametric estimator in constructing the combined estimator. This can be used to construct consistent tests for the parametric regression model used to form the combined estimator.     

The Multivariate Partially Linear EV Model with B-spline

A multivariate partially linear EV model is considered in this paper. By correcting the attenuation, a modified B-spline least squares estimator for both the parametric and the nonparametric components is proposed. Moreover, we investigate the asymptotical normality of the modified estimator of the parametric components and the convergence rate of the estimator of the nonparametric function.     

Goodness-of-fit tests for a semiparametric model under random double truncation

Doubly truncated data are commonly encountered in areas like medicine, astronomy, economics, among others. A semiparametric estimator of a doubly truncated random variable may be computed based on a parametric specification of the distribution function of the truncation times. This semiparametric estimator outperforms the nonparametric maximum likelihood estimator when the parametric information is correct, but might behave badly when the assumed parametric model is far off. In this paper we introduce several goodness-of-fit tests for the parametric model. The proposed tests are investigated through simulations. For illustration purposes, the tests are also applied to data on the induction time to acquired immune deficiency syndrome for blood transfusion patients.     

Nonparametric regression with current status data

We apply nonparametric regression to current status data, which often arises in survival analysis and reliability analysis. While no parametric assumption on the distributions has been imposed, most authors have employed parametric models like linear models to measure the covariate effects on failure times in regression analysis with current status data. We construct a nonparametric estimator of the regression function by modifying the maximum rank correlation (MRC) estimator. Our estimator can deal with the cases where the other estimators do not work. We present the asymptotic bias and the asymptotic distribution of the estimator by adapting a result on equicontinuity of degenerate U-processes to the setup of this paper.

Nonparametric regression estimation with general parametric error covariance

The asymptotic distribution for the local linear estimator in nonparametric regression models is established under a general parametric error covariance with dependent and heterogeneously distributed regressors. A two-step estimation procedure that incorporates the parametric information in the error covariance matrix is proposed. Sufficient conditions for its asymptotic normality are given and its efficiency relative to the local linear estimator is established. We give examples of how our results are useful in some recently studied regression models. A Monte Carlo study confirms the asymptotic theory predictions and compares our estimator with some recently proposed alternative estimation procedures.

Kullback-Leibler Information Consistent Estimation for Censored Data

This paper is intended as an investigation of parametric estimation for the randomly right censored data. In parametric estimation, the Kullback-Leibler information is used as a measure of the divergence of a true distribution generating a data relative to a distribution in an assumed parametric model M. When the data is uncensored, maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) is a consistent estimator of minimizing the Kullback-Leibler information, even if the assumed model M does not contain the true distribution. We call this property minimum Kullback-Leibler information consistency (MKLI-consistency). However, the MLE obtained by maximizing the likelihood function based on the censored data is not MKLI-consistent. As an alternative to the MLE, Oakes (1986, Biometrics, 42, 177–182) proposed an estimator termed approximate maximum likelihood estimator (AMLE) due to its computational advantage and potential for robustness. We show MKLI-consistency and asymptotic normality of the AMLE under the misspecification of the parametric model. In a simulation study, we investigate mean square errors of these two estimators and an estimator which is obtained by treating a jackknife corrected Kaplan-Meier integral as the log-likelihood. On the basis of the simulation results and the asymptotic results, we discuss comparison among these estimators. We also derive information criteria for the MLE and the AMLE under censorship, and which can be used not only for selecting models but also for selecting estimation procedures.     

Partially Linear Varying Coefficient Models Stratified by a Functional Covariate

We consider the problem of estimation in semiparametric varying coefficient models where the covariate modifying the varying coefficients is functional and is modeled nonparametrically. We develop a kernel-based estimator of the nonparametric component and a profiling estimator of the parametric component of the model and derive their asymptotic properties. Specifically, we show the consistency of the nonparametric functional estimates and derive the asymptotic expansion of the estimates of the parametric component. We illustrate the performance of our methodology using a simulation study and a real data application.
