The paper deals with a class of non-parametric estimators of conditional probabilities of failure prior x+y given survival to x under the random and observable right-censorship model. The proposed estimators are based on a specific sequential sampling scheme. Application of the estimators in life-table analysis is presented. (original abstract)
