Abstract: | Based on randomly right-censored data, a smooth nonparametric estimator of the quantile function of the lifetime distribution is studied. The estimator is defined to be the solution xn(p) of Fn(xn(p)) = p, where Fn is the distribution function corresponding to a kernel estimator of the lifetime density. The strong consistency and asymptotic normality of xn(p) are shown. Data-based selection of the bandwidth required for computing Fn is investigated using bootstrap methods. Illustrative examples are given. |
