We study estimation and inference in a marginal proportional hazards model that can handle (1) linear effects, (2) non-linear effects and (3) interactions between covariates. The model under consideration is an amalgamation of three existing marginal proportional hazards models studied in the...

The varying coefficient model is an important class of nonparametric statistical model, which allows us to examine how the effects of covariates vary with exposure variables. When the number of covariates is large, the issue of variable selection arises. In this article, we propose and...
