A Combinatoric Approach to the Kaplan-Meier Estimator

The Annals of Statistics, 1985
The paper considers the Kaplan-Meier estimator \(F_ n^{KM}\) from a combinatoric viewpoint. Under the assumption that the estimated distribution F and the censoring distribution G are continuous, the combinatoric results are used to show that \(\int | \theta (z)| dF_ n^{KM}(z)\) has expectation not larger than \(\int | \theta (z)| dF(z)\) for any ...
