Abstract

In this paper, we discuss wavelet estimation of time-varying coefficient models based on censored data where the survival and the censoring times are from a stationary α-mixing sequence. Under the appropriate conditions, the Berry-Esseen bouds of wavelet estimators are established. For the purpose of statistical inference, a random weighted wavelet estimator of the time-varying coefficient is also constructed, and some approximation rates are given.

Appendix

Lemma A.1

(Antoniadis et al. [1]). Suppose that Assumption (A3)(iii) holds. We have

  1. sup0t,s1|Em(t,s)|=O(2m).

  2. sup0t101|Em(t,s)|dsc,wherecis a positive constant.

Lemma A.2

(Antoniadis et al. [1]). Suppose that Assumptions (A3)(iii)–(iv) hold andh(t) satisfies Assumptions (A3)(i)–(ii). Then

sup0t1|h(t)i=1nh(ti)AiEm(t,s)ds|=O(nυ)+O(τm),

where

τm=(1/2m)γ1/2if1/2<γ<3/2,m/2mifγ=3/2,1/2mifγ>3/2.

Lemma A.3

(Li, et al. [19]). Suppose that {ζn, n ≥ 1}, {ηn, n ≥ 1} and {ξn, n ≥ 1} are three random variable sequences, {γn, n ≥ 1} is a positive constant sequence, andγn → 0. Ifsupu|Fζn(u)Φ(u)|Cγn,then for anyϵ1 > 0 andϵ2 > 0

supuFζn+ηn+ξn(u)Φ(u)Cγn+ϵ1+ϵ2+P(|ηn|ϵ1)+P(|ξn|ϵ2).

Lemma A.4

(Hall and Heyde [14]). Suppose thatXandYare random variables such that E|X|p < ∞, E|Y|q < ∞, wherep, q > 1, p−1 + q−1 < 1. Then

|EXYEXEY|8E|X|p1/pE|X|q1/q(supAσ(X),Bσ(Y)|P(AB)P(A)P(B)|)11/p1/q.

In the following section, let {Xi, i ≥ 1} be an α-mixing sequence of random variables with EXi = 0 and mixing coefficient α(i).

Lemma A.5

(Yang [36]).

  1. Suppose that E|Xi|2+δ < ∞ forδ > 0. Then

    E|i=1nXi|2=(1+20j=1nαδ/(2+δ)(j))i=1nE|Xi|2+δ2/(2+δ);
  2. Let E|Xi|r+δ < ∞ forr > 2 andδ > 0. Suppose thatθ > r(r + δ)/(2δ) andα(n) = O(nθ). Then for any givenϵ > 0, there exists a positive constantsC = C(r, δ, ϵ, θ) such that

    Emax1jn|i=1jXi|rC{nϵi=1nE|Xi|r+(i=1nE|Xi|r+δ2/(r+δ))r/2}.

Lemma A.6

(Yang and Li [1]). Letrandsare two positive integers. Letξd=j=(d1)(r+s)+1(d1)(r+s)+rXjfor 1 ≤ dk. Ifp > 0, q > 0 and1p+1q=1,then

|Eexp(iud=1kξd)d=1kEexp(iuξd)|C|u|α1/p(s)d=1k(E|ξd|q)1/q.

Lemma A.7

(Fan and Yao [12]). Let {Xi} be a zero-mean real-valuedα-mixing process satisfyingP(|Xi| ≤ b) = 1 for alli ≥ 1. Then for each integerq ∈ [1, n/2] and eachϵ > 0, we have

P(|i=1nXi|>nϵ)4exp(ϵ2q8v2(q))+22(1+4bϵ)1/2qα(n2q),

wherev2(q) = 2σ2(q)/p2 + bϵ/2 withp = n/(2q) and

σ2(q)=max1j2q1E{([jp]+1jp)X[jp]+1+X[jp]+2++X[(j+1)p]+((j+1)p[(j+1)p])X[(j+1)p]+1}2.

Lemma A.8

(Cai [5]). Letn(x) be the Kaplan-Meier estimator of the common distributionF(x) of {Xi, i ≥ 1} in the censored setup. Suppose that theα-mixing coefficient ofξksatisfiesα(k) = O(k–λ), for λ > 3. Then, for anyT ∈ (0, τH), we have

supx[0,T]|F^n(x)F(x)|=O((loglogn/n)1/2),a.s..
