We investigate the estimation problem of parameters in a two-sample semiparametric model. Specifically, let X1,...,Xn be a sample from a population with distribution function G and density function g. Independent of the Xi's, let Z1,...,Zm be another random sample with distribution function H...

There is a large literature on methods of analysis for randomized trials with noncompliance which focuses on the effect of treatment on the average outcome. The paper considers evaluating the effect of treatment on the entire distribution and general functions of this effect. For distributional...

The problem of missing response data is ubiquitous in medical and social science studies. In the case of responses that are missing at random (depending on some covariate information), analyses focused only on the complete data may lead to biased results. Various debias methods have been...

In logistic case-control studies, Prentice and Pyke (Biometrika 66 (1979) 403-411) showed that valid point estimators of the odds-ratio parameters and their standard errors may be obtained by fitting the prospective logistic regression model to case-control data. Wang and Carroll (Biometrika 80...

A family of nonparametric statistics to comparing ROC curves for continuous diagnostic tests was proposed by Wieand et al. [Wieand, S., Gail, M.H., James, B.R., James, K.L., 1989. A family of nonparametric statistics for comparing diagnostic markers with paired or unpaired data. Biometrika...
