Even though the asymptotic normality of the n.n. density estimate is well known (see [1]), similar results for the n.n. hazard estimate have not been shown in the literature. In this paper, we develop a different approach to deal with the n.n. type estimator. For a mixed censorship-truneation model, we show that, under mild conditions, the n. n. estimate can be approximated by an estimate formed with a proper fixed bandwidth sequence and derive the asymptotic normality as a consequence.展开更多
