In emplik: Empirical Likelihood Ratio for Censored/Truncated Data

Empirical likelihood for mean functional/hazard functional with possibly censored data.

Description

Empirical likelihood ratio tests and confidence intervals for means/hazards from possibly censored and/or truncated data. Now does regression too. The package contains some C code.

Details

For non-censored data and mean parameters, use el.test( ).

For censored data and mean parameters, use el.cen.EM2( ).

For censored data and hazard parameters, use emplikH1.test( ) [Poisson type likelihood]; use emplikH.disc( ) [binomial type likelihood].

For constructing confidence intervals, use findUL( ).
