In this paper, we assume that X, Y are missing at random （MAR） and use the inverse probability weighted imputation to produce ＇complete＇ data sets for X and Y. Based on these data sets, we construct an empirical likelihood （EL） statistic for the difference of X and Y （denoted as A）, and show that the EL statistic has the limiting distribution of X~, which is used to construct a confidence interval for A. Results of a simulation study on the finite sample performance of EL-based confidence intervals on A are reported.展开更多

Two types of estimators of β and g（t） for fixed t are investigated： estimators based on semiparametric regression and inverse probability weighted imputations. Asymptotic normality of the estimators is established, which is used to construct normal approximation based confidence intervals on β and g（t）.
