Nonparametric Estimation of Cumulative Incidence Functions for Competing Risks Data with Missing Cause of Failure
Effraimidis, Georgios; Dahl, Christian M. - School of Economics and Management, University of Aarhus - 2013
In this paper, we develop a fully nonparametric approach for the estimation of the cumulative incidence function with Missing At Random right-censored competing risks data. We obtain results on the pointwise asymptotic normality as well as the uniform convergence rate of the proposed...
