b_2(t) = g'(g^{-1}(t))^2 f_X(t) + int_{g^{-1}(t)}^Inf g''(z) g'(z) f_X(g(z)) dz. The tail integral is taken by quadrature on the transformed scale, where the integrand is smooth. b_2 is the coefficient carried by the FIRST cumulative survival estimator.

Usage

morie_fauzi_b2_coefficient(
  t,
  f_X,
  f_X_prime = NULL,
  S_X = NULL,
  transform = "log"
)

Arguments

t

evaluation points strictly inside the support.

f_X

density at t.

f_X_prime

density derivative at t; required here.

S_X

survival at t; unused by b_1, kept for signature parity with the b_2 and b_3 companions.

transform

"log" or "identity".

Value

list: t, b_2, g_prime, g_double_prime, bias_order, contrast, transform, method.
