Heteroscedastic Transformation Models With Covariate Dependent Censoring

In this article we propose an inferential procedure for transformation models with conditional heteroscedasticity in the error terms. The proposed method is robust to covariate dependent censoring of arbitrary form. We provide sufficient conditions for point identification. We then propose an estimator and show that it is √n-consistent and asymptotically normal. We conduct a simulation study that reveals adequate finite sample performance. We …
