An Asymptotic Linear Representation for the Breslow Estimator

preprint2015arXivOpen access

Abstract

We provide an asymptotic linear representation for the Breslow estimator of the baseline cumulative hazard function in the Cox model. Our representation consists of an average of independent random variables and a term involving the difference between the maximum partial likelihood estimator and the underlying regression parameter. The order of the remainder term is arbitrarily close to 1/n.
