Robust estimators of accelerated failure time regression with generalized log-gamma errors

The generalized log-gamma (GLG) model is a very flexible family of distributions to analyze datasets in many different areas of science and technology. Estimators are proposed which are simultaneously highly robust and highly efficient for the parameters of a GLG distribution in the presence of cens...

It is proven that the proposed estimators are asymptotically fully efficient and the maximum mean square error is examined using Monte Carlo simulations.
