A thorough treatment of the statistical methods used to analyze
doubly truncated data In The Statistical Analysis of Doubly
Truncated Data, an expert team of statisticians delivers an
up-to-date review of existing methods used to deal with randomly
truncated data, with a focus on the challenging problem of random
double truncation. The authors comprehensively introduce doubly
truncated data before moving on to discussions of the latest
developments in the field. The book offers readers examples with R
code along with real data from astronomy, engineering, and the
biomedical sciences to illustrate and highlight the methods
described within. Linear regression models for doubly truncated
responses are provided and the influence of the bandwidth in the
performance of kernel-type estimators, as well as guidelines for
the selection of the smoothing parameter, are explored. Fully
nonparametric and semiparametric estimators are explored and
illustrated with real data. R code for reproducing the data
examples is also provided. The book also offers: A thorough
introduction to the existing methods that deal with randomly
truncated data Comprehensive explorations of linear regression
models for doubly truncated responses Practical discussions of the
influence of bandwidth in the performance of kernel-type estimators
and guidelines for the selection of the smoothing parameter
In-depth examinations of nonparametric and semiparametric
estimators Perfect for statistical professionals with some
background in mathematical statistics, biostatisticians, and
mathematicians with an interest in survival analysis and
epidemiology, The Statistical Analysis of Doubly Truncated Data is
also an invaluable addition to the libraries of biomedical
scientists and practitioners, as well as postgraduate students
studying survival analysis.
