| Summary: | This study will improve the performance of the Generalized Exponential Distribution (GED) by incorporating time-dependent covariates (TD) in the presence of interval-censored data. Interval-censored data usually arises in clinical and epidemiological studies where lifetime is only known to fall within an interval. Moreover, this study concentrates on the parameters estimation for this distribution. This study will compare the maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) for two distinct models, namely time-dependent covariates model and time-independent covariates model in terms of their bias, standard error (SE) and root mean square error (RMSE) at various attendance probability (AP) and sample sizes. The results indicate that bias, SE and RMSE values of the parameter estimates increase with the increase in attendance probability and decrease with the increase in sample size. |
