摘要
We study the maximum smoothed likelihood estimator (MSLE) for interval censoring, case 2, in the so-called separated case. Characterizations in terms of convex duality conditions are given and strong consistency is proved. Moreover, we show that, under smoothness conditions on the underlying distributions and using the usual bandwidth choice in density estimation, the local convergence rate is n(-2/5) and the limit distribution is normal, in contrast with the rate n(-1/3) of the ordinary maximum likelihood estimator.
