This paper considers the problem of estimation and inference in semiparametric varying coefficients partially linear models when the response variable is subject to random censoring. The paper proposes an estimator based on combining inverse probability of censoring weighting and profile least...

This article considers empirical likelihood in the context of efficient semiparametric estimators of average treatment effects. It shows that the empirical likelihood ratio converges to a nonstandard distribution, and proposes a corrected test statistic that is asymptotically chi-squared. A...
