In case 2 interval censoring the random survival time X of interest is not directly observable, but only known to have occurred before Y, between Y and Z, or after Z, where (Y, Z) is a pair of observable inspection times such that Y<Z. We consider the large sample properties of the generalized maxim
The iterative convex minorant (ICM) algorithm (Groeneboom and Wellner, 1992) is widely believed to be much faster than the EM algorithm (Turnbull, 1976) in computing the NPMLE of the distribution function for interval censored data. Our formulation of the ICM helps to explore its connection with the
