It is a common issue to compare treatment-specific survival and the weighted log-rank test is the most popular method for group comparison.However,in observational studies,treatments and censoring times are usually not independent,which invalidates the weighted log-rank tests.In this paper,we propose adjusted weighted log-rank tests in the presence of non-random treatment assignment and dependent censoring.A double-inverse weighted technique is developed to adjust the weighted log-rank tests.Specifically,inverse probabilities of treatment and censoring weighting are involved to balance the baseline treatment assignment and to overcome dependent censoring,respectively.We derive the asymptotic distribution of the proposed adjusted tests under the null hypothesis,and propose a method to obtain the critical values.Simulation studies show that the adjusted log-rank tests have correct sizes whereas the traditional weighted log-rank tests may fail in the presence of non-random treatment assignment and dependent censoring.An application to oropharyngeal carcinoma data from the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group is provided for illustration.

基于数字图像相关(DIC)技术,对渐开线直齿轮在不同啮合状态下的接触变形特性进行了实验研究.通过测量齿轮在一个啮合周期内的全场变形演化过程,分析轮齿接触区域以及齿根区域这两个关键位置的变形规律,并研究了中心距偏差对轮齿变形的影响.实验结果表明,轮齿接触区域和齿根区域有明显的应变集中现象,并且轮齿应变分布随着齿轮运动变化显著.中心距偏差对于轮齿接触区域以及齿根区域应变演化趋势影响较小,但对于应变极值大小有着显著改变.在一定范围内随着中心距增加,接触区域压应变极值相应增大,其拉应变以及齿根区域的主应变极值则没
The main purpose of this paper is to define prime and introduce non-commutative arith-metics based on Thompson\'s group F.Defining primes in a non-abelian monoid is highly non-trivial,which relies on a concept called “castling”.Three types of castlings
