Abstract
Cai and Zeng (Citation2011) proposed an additive mixed effect model to analyze clustered right-censored data. In this article, we demonstrate that the approach of Cai and Zeng (Citation2011) can be extended to clustered doubly censored data. Furthermore, when both left- and right-censoring variables are always observed, we propose alternative estimators using the approach of Cai and Cheng (Citation2004). A simulation study is conducted to investigate the performance of the proposed estimators.
