Proposed Analysis: I would like to conduct statistical analysis about nonparametric regression with censored independent variables.Because the survival time maybe related to some other observable variables, discovering the relationship between them is our purpose, especially the nonlinear relationships. Censoring occurs in Alzheimer study dataset, and such regression problems may also help further research in medical field.

Proposed Analysis: We are now working on a project on nonparametric regression with censored covariates, and also we are interested in investigating association between (survival) time and some values of biomarkers. Even though a lot of studies have examined such association, most of them focused on linear regression and prediction through parametric models. Our aim is to develop nonparametric approaches to study such regression problems.
