Second lecture on August 29

We will start by a quick reconsideration of the Kaplan-Meier estimator and the Nelson-Aalen estimator as presented in Slides 4. The main task for the lectures will be to go through Slides 5 which cover most of Chapter 2 in the book. This theory is basic to the theoretical derivations of the above estimators, as well as extensions of them to be considered later. As time permits, we will go through the exercises for the present week, 1.1-1.5 in book. A solution will be posted after the lecture.
