G-estimation and artificial censoring: problems, challenges, and applications.
TL;DR: To improve performance of the optimization procedures, approaches for reducing the amount of artificial censoring, the substitution of smooth for indicator functions, and the use of estimating functions scaled to a measure of the information in the data are considered.
Journal ArticleDOI
