Abstract
Abstract The regression models proposed for lifetime data, generally involved the assumption of the ‘proportional hazard rate function’. In this paper, parallel to Cox's (1972) Proportional Hazard (PH) model, we propose a new model involving the assumption of ‘proportional mean remaining life function’. The concept of the Proportional Mean Remaining Life (PMRL) model is based on the intuitive concept of mean. In this report we develop the model and establish its relationship with the Cox PH model. Some possible estimation procedures are briefly discussed.
