Abstract

The following discussion is inspired by the paper Nonparametric generalized fiducial inference for survival functions under censoring by Cui and Hannig. The discussion consists of comments on the results, but also indicates it's importance more generally in the context of fiducial inference. A two page introduction to fiducial inference is given to provide a context.
