Table 4.
Compare one-shot nonparametric method and IPCW method. Change point Cox PH model: covariates X and Y are generated from Uniform[0, 1]. Parameters in hazard function are λ0 = 0.01, β1 = 3, β20 = 0.1, and β21 = 15. The change point τ = 8.59 is selected such that CTX = CTY = 0.655 based on 100,000 simulations. The values of parameter λ for exponential censoring is chosen to achieve the desired censoring proportions. Threshold model: event time T distribution with the rate λ =1. Two risk scores X and Y are generated from a mixture of bivariate normal distribution described in equation (7), with parameters μ0 = 2, ρ = 0, and . The cut point τ = 0.718 is selected such that CTX = CTY = 0.803 based on 100,000 simulations. Parameters λ for exponential censoring is chosen to achieve the desired censoring proportions. Sample size n=200 and 400.
