摘要
In this paper,we study the hazard rate by a semiparametric model with an unspecified functional form and involving an index structure.We propose a random censored local linear kernel-weighted least squares estimator for the nonparametric component,treating it as a bivariate function,and this estimator enjoys uniform consistency.The induced profile likelihood estimator of the index coefficient vector achieves the information lower bound.This semiparametric efficient result inspires the construction of a class of efficient estimating equations.For computational feasibility,another two sets of estimating equations are presented based on double robustness.The efficient estimation can be readily implemented by an adapted Newton-Raphson algorithm.Asymptotic properties of all estimators are rigorously established and derived.Numerical results validate the performance of the proposed estimators.
