Estimation in the Koziol-Green Model Using a Gamma Process Prior
The paper deals with nonparametric Bayes estimators in the Koziol-Green model of random censorship. A gamma process is assumed as a prior distribution for cumulative hazard rate and the Bayes estimator incorporating the proportional hazards censorship property of the model is presented. The estimato...

Summary: | The paper deals with nonparametric Bayes estimators in the Koziol-Green model of random censorship. A gamma process is assumed as a prior distribution for cumulative hazard rate and the Bayes estimator incorporating the proportional hazards censorship property of the model is presented. The estimator is also applied to two data sets from literature. |
