It is based on resampling by the smoothed bootstrap and minimising the bootstrap approximation of the mean integrated squared error to find the bootstrap bandwidth. The behaviour of this method has been tested by simulation on several models. Bootstrap confidence intervals are also addressed in this research and their performance is analysed in the simulation study.engAtribución 4.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Beran’s estimatorSurvival analysisBootstrapBandwidth selectorConfidence intervalsconference outputopen access10.3390/engproc2021007028
