SiZer for Censored Density and Hazard Estimation
Abstract
Description
The SiZer method is extended to nonparametric hazard estimation and also to censored density and hazard estimation. The new method allows quick, visual statistical inference about the important issue of statistically significant increases and decreases in the smooth curve estimate. This extension has required the opening of a new avenue of research on the interface between statistical inference and scale space.
