Abstract:
|
The proportional mean residual life model was introduced by Oakes and Dasu (1990) and has since been studied by a number of authors, including, notably, Chen and Cheng (2006). When the mean residual life functions are decreasing functions of time, the model is a special case of an excess risk model discussed by, amongst others, Sasieni (1996) and Martinussen and Scheike (2002). Some implications of this representation for inference about the model parameters are discussed.
