Abstract
This paper presents a class of semiparametric transformation models for regression analysis of panel count data when the observation times or process may differ from subject to subject and more importantly, may contain relevant information about the underlying recurrent event. The models are much more flexible than the existing ones and include many commonly used models as special cases. For estimation of regression parameters, some estimating equations are developed and the resulting estimators are shown to be consistent and asymptotically normal. An extensive simulation study was conducted and indicates that the proposed approach works well for practical situations. An illustrative example is provided.
