Applying Beta-type Size Distributions to Healthcare Cost Regressions
Jones, A.; Lomas, J.; Rice, N. - Department of Economics and Related Studies, University … - 2011
This paper extends the literature on modelling healthcare cost data by applying the Generalised Beta of the Second Kind (GB2) distribution to UK data. A quasi-experimental design, estimating models on a subset of the data and evaluating performance on another subset, is used to compare this...

Generalized copula-graphic estimator
Uña-Álvarez, Jacobo; Veraverbeke, Noël - In: TEST: An Official Journal of the Spanish Society of … 22 (2013) 2, pp. 343-360
In this paper, a copula-graphic estimator is proposed for censored survival data. It is assumed that there is some dependent censoring acting on the variable of interest that may come from an existing competing risk. Furthermore, the full process is independently censored by some administrative...

Semiparametric likelihood estimation in survival models with informative censoring
Lu, Zudi; Zhang, Wenyang - In: Journal of Multivariate Analysis 106 (2012) C, pp. 187-211
Semiparametric proportional hazard regression models are the cornerstone in modern survival analysis. Most estimation methodologies developed in the literature, such as the famous partial likelihood based estimation, are built on the ground that the censoring is noninformative. However, in many...
