Interval-censored failure time data often occur, for example, in clinical trials or longitudinal studies. For the regression analysis of such data, there have been a number of methods proposed based on continuous regression models such as Cox's proportional hazards model. In practice, however, obser

The authors consider the estimation of regression parameters in the context of a class of generalized pmportional hazards models, termed linear transformation models, in the presence of interval-censored data. They present an estimating equation appach whose good performance is demonstrated through
A self-consistent algorithm was proposed by Turnbull (J. Amer. Statist. Assoc. 69 (1974) [169][170][171][172][173] to estimate the distribution of X on the basis of interval censored data of X . An interval censored X means that X is known either to lie inside an interval (XL; XR], or to lie below X
Interest often centres on the comparison of failure time distributions based on interval-censored failure time data such as in the work by Finkelstein, in which she proposed a score test under continuous proportional hazards model. In this article, we consider a different situation in which the unde
