b_3(t) = g'(g^{-1}(t))^2 f_X(t) - g''(g^{-1}(t)) S_X(t), the coefficient carried by the SECOND cumulative survival estimator. Note the minus sign and the survival function: this is where the two Ch. 4 estimators part company.

Usage

morie_fauzi_b3_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_3, g_prime, g_double_prime, bias_order, contrast, transform, method.
