Abstract
We consider nonparametric estimation based on interval-censored competing risks data with masked failure cause. The generalized maximum likelihood estimator of the joint survival function of the failure time and the failure cause is studied under mixed case interval censorship and random partition masking. Strong consistency in the L 1(μ)-topology is established for some finite measure μ which is derived from the joint censoring and masking distribution. Under additional regularity assumptions we also establish the strong consistencies in the topologies of weak convergence, point-wise convergence, and uniform convergence.
