This article presents a non-parametric estimator of a survival function in a proportional hazard model when some of the data are censored on the left and some are censored on the right. The proposed method generalizes the work of Ebrahimi (1985). Uniformly strong consistency and asymptotic normality
A strong i.i.d. representation is obtained for the product-limit estimator of the survival function based on left truncated and right censored data. This extends the result of Chao and Lo (1988, Ann. Statist. 16, 661-668) for truncated data. An improved rate of the approximation is also obtained on
A truncation bias affects the observation of a pair of variables (X, Y), so that data are available only if Y ~<X. In such a situation, the nonparametric maximum likelihood estimator (NPMLE) of the distribution function of Y may have unpleasant features (Woodroofe, Ann. Statisr 13 (1985) 163-177). A
We consider the problem of estimating the quantiles of a distribution function in a fixed design regression model in which the observations are subject to random right censoring. The quantile estimator is defined via a conditional Kaplan-Meier type estimator for the distribution at a given design po
