Also provided for comparison are the full-data partial-likelihood estimator of Andersen and Gill (1982) , the complete-case estimator, and the missing-at-random imputation estimator of Liu and Wang (2010, Statistica Sinica, 20, 1125-1142). The probability models for the failure indicator and for the missingness mechanism are estimated jointly by maximum likelihood following Sun, Xie, and Liang (2013) , and a Nadaraya-Watson kernel-smoothed estimator of the missingness propensity is constructed following Qiu, Chen, and Zhou (2015) . Both an asymptotic (sandwich-type) variance estimator and a nonparametric bootstrap variance estimator are provided. When failure indicators are fully observed the estimators reduce algebraically to the classical Cox partial-likelihood estimator. authors: - family-names: Tyagi given-names: Shikhar email: shikhar1093tyagi@gmail.com orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1606-0844 - family-names: Pandey given-names: Arvind email: arvindmzu@gmail.com - family-names: Singh given-names: Bhupendra email: bhupendra.rana@gmail.com - family-names: Tripathi given-names: Vrijesh email: vrijesh.tripathi@uwi.edu preferred-citation: type: manual title: 'coxmnar: Cox Regression with Missing Not at Random Failure Indicators' authors: - family-names: Tyagi given-names: Shikhar email: shikhar1093tyagi@gmail.com orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1606-0844 - family-names: Pandey given-names: Arvind email: arvindmzu@gmail.com - family-names: Singh given-names: Bhupendra email: bhupendra.rana@gmail.com - family-names: Tripathi given-names: Vrijesh email: vrijesh.tripathi@uwi.edu year: '2026' notes: R package version 0.1.0 url: https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=coxmnar repository: https://shikhartyagi.r-universe.dev commit: 8dc5d1de963067e9d8e12565230bd93d0aae7311 date-released: '2026-07-31' contact: - family-names: Tyagi given-names: Shikhar email: shikhar1093tyagi@gmail.com orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1606-0844 references: - type: article title: Estimation in the Cox proportional hazards model with missing not at random failure indicators authors: - family-names: Liu given-names: Yi - family-names: Liu given-names: Kaiyuan journal: Statistics and Computing volume: '36' year: '2026' doi: 10.1007/s11222-026-10857-1 start: '112'
