Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 統計學研究所 === 95 === The thesis considers semi-parametric inference based on Copula models for bivariate survival data subject to right censoring. There exist several semi-parametric inference approaches to estimating the association parameter. We examine and compare three approaches developed for homogeneous data in absence of covariates. Then we extend these methods to a regression setting that accounts for marginal heterogeneity explained by the covariates. Finite-sample performances are examined by simulations.
