Biased sampling with right censoring: a note on Sun, Cui and Tiwari (2002). (English) Zbl 1241.62018
Summary: Y. Sun, S. Cui and R. C. Tiwari [Can. J. Stat. 30, No. 3, 475–490 (2002; Zbl 1016.62012)] studied the asymptotic behaviour of certain goodness-of-fit tests in the presence of biased sampling and right censoring. The author illustrates that, unfortunately, an assumption made by Sun, Cui and Tiwari on the independence between failure and censoring time fails to hold in many important applications, which limits the applicability of their results.
