The estimators of covariate coefficients and the long-term survivor proportion are obtained by the partial likelihood method, and their asymptotic properties are also established. Simulation studies demonstrate the performance of the proposed estimators, and an application to a real dataset is provided.展开更多

The estimators were proposed by Liang and Ould-Sa?d [1]. The results confirm the guess in Liang and Ould-Sa?d [1].展开更多

It is assumed that the observations form a stationary a-mixing sequence. Asymptotic normality of the estimator is established. The finite sample behavior of the estimator is investigated via simulations.展开更多
