Abstract:

Methodology of sufficient dimension reduction (SDR) has offered an effective means to facilitate regression analysis of high dimensional data. When the response is censored, however, most existing SDR estimators can not be applied, or require some restrictive conditions. In this work we propose a new class of inverse censoring probability weighted SDR estimators for censored regression. Moreover, regularization is introduced to achieve simultaneous variable selection and dimension reduction. Asymptotic properties and empirical performance of the proposed methods are examined.
