Abstract: | Summary Chen (2009, Biometrics) studies the semi‐parametric accelerated failure time model for data that are size biased. Chen considers only the uncensored case and uses hazard‐based estimation methods originally developed for censored observations. However, for uncensored data, a simple linear regression on the log scale is more natural and provides better estimators. |
