Abstract:
|
We propose a general class of weighted semiparametric models for recurrent event data. The weights represent the reciprocals of selection probabilities for units in a study. These can be known quantities that are used in situations such as survey sampling. Alternatively, they are unknown quantities that are estimated via logistic regression in studies that have a biased sample. Estimators are constructed and their associated asymptotic properties are established. Finite sample properties are investigated via a computer simulation study. A real data set is analyzed to illustrate the class of models.
