On estimating equations with censored data
删失数据的估计方程
General estimating equations based on independent identically distributed random variables which may be right-censored are considered. The equations which appear to be natural analogues of the uncensored equations require full distributional assumptions, and a distribution-free modification based on the product-limit estimator is suggested. It follows from self-consistency that the resulting estimating functions are simply means obtained from the product-limit estimator. The…
