Capture–recapture experiments are widely used cost‐effective sampling techniques for estimating population sizes or abundances in biology, ecology, demography, epidemiology and reliability studies. For continuous time capture–recapture data, existing estimation methods are based on conditional likelihoods and an inverse weighting estimating equation. The corresponding Wald‐type confidence intervals...
Summary. The conventional Wilcoxon or Mann–Whitney test can be invalid for comparing treatment effects in the presence of missing values or in observational studies. This is because the missingness of the outcomes or the participation in the treatments may depend on certain pretreatment variables. We propose an approach to adjust the Mann–Whitney test by correcting the potential bias via consistently...
Summary. Testing the equality of two survival distributions can be difficult in a prevalent cohort study when non‐random sampling of subjects is involved. Owing to the biased sampling scheme, the independent censoring assumption is often violated. Although the issues about biased inference caused by length‐biased sampling have been widely recognized in the statistical, epidemiological and economical...
