The frailty model is one of the most popular models used to analyze clustered failure time data, where the frailty term is used to assess an association within each cluster. The frailty model based on the semiparametric accelerated failure time model attracts less attention than the one based on...

The problem of estimating the parameters in a generalized linear model when a covariate is subject to censoring is studied. A new method based on an estimating function approach is proposed. The method does not assume a parametric form for the distribution of the response given the regressors...
