Abstract
In this article, we consider parameter estimation in the hazard rate with multiple change points in the presence of long-term survivors. We combine two methods: maximum likelihood based and martingale based, to estimate the change points in the hazard rate for right censored survival data that accounts for long-term survivors. A simulation study is carried out to compare the performance of estimators. The method is applied to analyze two real datasets.
