Nonparametric Predictive Comparison of Two Groups of Lifetime Data

We present the application of a recently introduced nonparametric predictive inferential method to compare two groups of data, consisting of observed event times and right-censoring times. Comparison is based on imprecise probabilities concerning one future observation per group. Keywords censored data, exchangeability, nonparametrics, prediction, survival analysis
