Abstract:In this article, we consider the problem of nonparametric hazard rate estimation in the presence of right‐censored observations. We provide a generalized risk bound for a regression‐type nonparametric estimator of the hazard function of interest. Under adequate integrability conditions, our bound is a generalization of estimation strategies specific to compactly supported bases to bases that are not necessarily compactly supported. We show that it encompasses previous compact‐support results and interestingly … Show more
