Abstract
In this paper a simple way to obtain empirical likelihood type confidence intervals for the mean under random censorship is suggested. An extension to the more general case where the functional of interest is an M-functional is discussed and the proposed technique is used to construct confidence intervals for quantiles. The results of a simulation study carried out to assess the accuracy of these inferential procedures are also given.File in questo prodotto:
