| Tiivistelmä: | A backcalculation procedure is presented for estimating both the cumulative incidence of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) - the total number of seropositive individuals as a function of calendar time - and the unconditional sampling distribution of this estimate. This estimation framework explicitly accounts for corrections for reporting lags in the most recent AIDS diagnosis data and imposes no functional form restrictions, besides a roughness penalty, on the resulting estimate of the cumulative incidence function. |
