Application of a simple nonparametric conditional quantile function estimator in unemployment duration analysis
Wilke, Ralf A.; Wichert, Laura - 2005
We consider an extension of conventional univariate Kaplan-Meier type estimators for the hazard rate and the survivor function to multivariate censored data with a censored random regressor. It is an Akritas (1994) type estimator which adapts the nonparametric conditional hazard rate estimator...
