Abstract: A maximum likelihood method with spline smoothing is proposed for linear transformation models with varying coefficients. The estimation and inference procedures are computationally easy. Under some regularity conditions, the estimators are proved to be consistent and asymptotically normal. A simulation study using the Stanford transplant data is presented to show that the proposed method performs well with a finite sample and is easy to use in practice.
