Abstract

We analyze left-truncated and right-censored (LTRC) data using semiparametric transformation models. It is demonstrated that the approach of Chen et al. (Biometrika 89: 659–668, 2002) can be extended to LTRC data. Furthermore, when covariates are discrete, similar to the approach of Cai and Cheng (Biometrika 91: 277–290, 2004), we propose an alternative estimator. A simulation study is conducted to investigate the performance of the proposed estimators.
