<p><a href="page.php?w=estimator">Estimation methods</a> for using left-censored data vary, and not all methods of estimation may be applicable to, or the most reliable, for all data sets.</p>

<p>A common misconception with time interval data is to class as left censored intervals when the start time is unknown. In these cases, we have a lower bound on the time interval; thus, the data is right censored (despite the fact that the missing start point is to the left of the known interval when viewed as a timeline!).</p>
