Estimation Of A Survival Function When There Are Missing Censoring Indicators

Sundar Subramanian, PhD.

Department of Mathematical Sciences

NJIT

In this talk we first introduce the missing censoring indicator model of random censorship and then present a survey of several estimators of a survival function -- both non- and semi-parametric. The talk will be basic and accessible to those with a passing interest in survival analysis, as well as to graduate students.
