Modern Stochastics: Theory and Applications

Cox proportional hazards model with measurement errors is considered. In Kukush and Chernova (2017), we elaborated a simultaneous estimator of the baseline hazard rate $\lambda (\cdot )$ and the regression parameter β, with the unbounded parameter set $\varTheta =\varTheta _{\lambda }\times \varTheta _{\beta }$, where $\varTheta _{\lambda }$ is a closed convex subset of $C[0,\tau ]$ and $\varTheta _{\beta }$ is a compact set in ${\mathbb{R}}^{m}$. The estimator is consistent and asymptotically normal. In the present paper, we construct confidence intervals for integral functionals of $\lambda (\cdot )$ and a confidence region for β under restrictions on the error distribution. In particular, we handle the following cases: (a) the measurement error is bounded, (b) it is a normally distributed random vector, and (c) it has independent components which are shifted Poisson random variables.
