Inference for Shift Functions in the Two-Sample Problem With Right-Censored Data: With Applications
右删失两样本问题中位移函数的推断及应用
For two distribution functions, F and G, the shift function is defined by Δ(t) = G −1 · F(t) - t. The shift function is the distance from the 45° line and the quantity plotted in Q-Q plots. In the analysis of lifetime data, A represents the difference between two treatments. The shift function can also be used to find crossing points of two distribution functions. The large-sample distribution theory for estimates of Δ is studied for right-censored data. It turns out that…
