A note on confidence intervals and bands for the survival function based on transformations
研究了基于对数-负对数和反正弦-平方根变换的生存函数逐点置信区间和同时置信带,比较了它们在小样本下与未变换版本的性能,发现变换能显著改善某些类型的区间和带。
Pointwise confidence intervals and simultaneous confidence bands for survival function based on log-minus-log and arcsine-square root transformations are considered, and their small sample performance is compared with that of their non-transformed counterparts. For confidence intervals and the equal precision bands a substantial improvement is obtained by using one of transformed versions. For bands of Hall-Wellner type there seems to be less reason for using transformations.
