Abstract: | In this note, we consider estimating the bivariate survival function when both components are subject to left truncation and right censoring. We propose two types of estimators as generalizations of the Dabrowska and Campbell and Földes estimators. The consistency of the proposed estimators is established. A simple bootstrap method is used for obtaining precision estimation of the proposed estimators. A simulation study is conducted to investigate the performance of the proposed estimators. |
