Estimation in the Mean Residual Life Regression Model
平均剩余寿命回归模型中的估计
SUMMARY The proportional mean residual life model was originally proposed by Oakes and Dasu. This model can be extended to a regression model with explanatory variables. We consider the problem of estimation of the regression parameter in this general model. We investigate two types of estimator, of which one is based on the maximum likelihood equation of the exponential regression model, and the other is based on the underlying proportional hazards structure of the model…
