Characterization of bathtub distributions via percentile residual life functions [PDF]
In reliability theory and survival analysis, many set of data are generated by distributions with bathtub shaped hazard rate functions. Launer (1993) established several relations between the behaviour of the hazard rate function and the percentile ...

Nonparametric estimation of a convex bathtub-shaped hazard function
In this paper, we study the nonparametric maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) of a convex hazard function. We show that the MLE is consistent and converges at a local rate of $n^{2/5}$ at points $x_0$ where the true hazard function is positive and ...

ABSTRACT Background The management of clinically apparent single lesions or oligofocal nephroblastomatosis, a facultative precursor of nephroblastoma, remains debated. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 37 patients with clinically apparent single or oligofocal nephroblastomatosis (two to three lesions per kidney) among 2347 patients registered between

Density and Hazard Rate Estimation for Censored and ?-mixing Data Using Gamma Kernels [PDF]
In this paper we consider the nonparametric estimation for a density and hazard rate function for right censored ?-mixing survival time data using kernel smoothing techniques.

Inpatient Food Insecurity and Pediatric Hematology Oncology Hospitalization Outcomes
ABSTRACT Children with cancer and blood disorders are at risk for food insecurity (FI). We aimed to describe the association of inpatient food insecurity (IFI) and hospitalization outcomes among patients admitted to the pediatric hematology oncology service. Of 325 caregivers screened for IFI, 60 (18.6%) screened positive.

Generalized Gompertz-power series distributions
In this paper, we introduce the generalized Gompertz-power series class of distributions which is obtained by compounding generalized Gompertz and power series distributions.

Asymptotic baseline of the hazard rate function of mixtures [PDF]
In this article, we consider the limit behavior of the hazard rate function of mixture distributions, assuming knowledge of the behavior of each individual distribution. We show that the asymptotic baseline function of the hazard rate function is preserved under mixture.
