摘要: Estimation in a three-state Markov process with irreversible transitions the presence of interval-censored data is considered. A nonparametric maximum likelihood procedure for estimation cumulative transition intensities presented. self-consistent estimator parameters defined and it shown that estimator. This extends idea self-consistency introduced by Efron to more than one parameter. An algorithm, based on selfconsistency equations, provided computation estimators
