A data augmentation algorithm is presented for estimating the hazard function and pointwise variability intervals based on interval censored data. The algorithm extends that proposed by Tanner and Wong for grouped right censored data to interval censored data. It applies multiple imputation and loca

The copula of a bivariate distribution, constructed by making marginal transformations of each component, captures all the information in the bivariate distribution about the dependence between two variables. For frailty models for bivariate data the choice of a family of distributions for the rando
For controlled comparative trials with matched pairs, in an attempt to improve the asymptotic interval estimator of the relative difference proposed elsewhere, I develop two asymptotic closed-form interval estimators with use of the logarithmic transformation and an idea used for deriving Fieller's
