Abstract
Let(X1,Y1),…,(Xn,Yn) be i.i.d. Rd×R random vectors coming from population (X,Y), and m(x)=E(Y \mid X=x) be a unknown nonparametric regression function. Now, Yi are randomly censored by Ti , where Ti are i.i.d. samples of random variable T, independent of (Xi, Yi). We can only observe Z_i=\min \left\Y_i, T_i\right\, \delta_i=\leftY_iYi* and Yi** using the synthetic data method proposed by Leurgans, etc., and proposes the kernel estimates M*(x) and m**(x) of m(x), under some conditions, these estimates are shown strongly consistent.
