Abstract: In this paper, we study the sparse estimation under the semiparametric linear transformation models for the current status data, also called type I interval-censored data. For the problem, the failure time of interest may be dependent on the censoring time and the association parameter between them is left unspecified. To address this, we employ the copula model to describe the dependence between them and a two-stage estimation procedure to estimate both the association parameter and the regression parameter. In addition, we propose a penalized maximum likelihood estimation procedure based on the broken adaptive ridge regression, and Bernstein polynomials are used to approximate the nonparametric functions involved. The oracle property of the proposed method is established and the numerical studies suggest that the method works well for practical situations. Finally, the method is applied to an Alzheimer's disease study that motivated this investigation.
