We propose a new procedure for estimating the survival function of a time-to-event random variable under arbitrary patterns of censoring. Under mild smoothness assumptions, this procedure allows a unified approach to handling different kinds of censoring, while in many cases increasing...

A variety of complications arise when imperfect measurements, W, are observed in place of a true variable of interest, X. In the context of linear and non-linear regression models where X is a covariate, regression parameter estimators obtained when W is substituted for X may be substantially...
