Nonparametric kernel estimation of Weibull-tail coefficient in presence of the right random censoring
Abstract
In this paper, nonparametric estimation of the conditional Weibull-tail coefficient when the variable of interest is right random censored is addressed. A Weissman-type estimator of conditional extreme quantile is also proposed. In addition, a simulation study is conducted to assess the finite-sample behavior of the proposed estimators and a comparison with alternative strategies is provided. Finally, the practical applicability of the methodology is presented using a real datasets of men suffering from a larynx cancer.
