Murrayand Tsiatis (1996) described a weighted survival estimate thatincorporates prognostic time-dependent covariate informationto increase the efficiency of estimation. We propose a test statisticbased on the statistic of Pepe and Fleming (1989, 1991) thatincorporates these weighted survival...

The Cox (1972) regression model is extended to include discrete and mixed continuous/discrete failure time data by retaining the multiplicative hazard rate form of the absolutely continuous model. Application of martingale arguments to the regression parameter estimating function show the...
