Empirical likelihood for mean functional/hazard functional with possibly censored data.
Description
Empirical likelihood ratio tests and confidence intervals for means/hazards from possibly censored and/or truncated data. Now does regression too. The package contains some C code.
Details
For non-censored data and mean parameters, use el.test( ).
For censored data and mean parameters, use el.cen.EM2( ).
For censored data and hazard parameters, use emplikH1.test( ) [Poisson type likelihood];
use emplikH.disc( ) [binomial type likelihood].
For constructing confidence intervals, use findUL( ).
