Abstract

In the partial Koziol-Green regression model, the lifetime variable may be censored by two types of censoring variables. One is called informative because it satisfies the Koziol-Green assumption on proportionality of hazards and the other one is general. Braekers and Veraverbeke proposed a non-parametric estimator for the conditional lifetime distribution and obtained a Gaussian approximation for the corresponding process. In the present paper, we propose an appropriate resampling scheme and show that this leads to a valid bootstrap approximation for the process.
