Local Convergence of Empirical Measures in the Random Censorship Situation with Application to Density and Rate Estimators
随机删失下经验测度的局部收敛及其在密度与风险率估计中的应用
In this paper, we study the local deviations of the empirical measure defined by the Kaplan-Meier (1958) estimator for the survival function. The results are applied to derive best rates of convergence for kernel estimators for the density and hazard rate function in the random censorship model.
