In this paper, we consider variable selection when one faces interval-censored failure time data arising from a general class of generalized odds rate mixture cure models, and we propose a penalized variable selection method by maximizing a derived penalized likelihood function. In the method, the sieve approach is employed to approximate the unknown function, and it is implemented using a novel penalized expectation maximization (EM) algorithm. Also the asymptotic properties of the proposed estimators of regression parameters, including the oracle property, are obtained. Furthermore, a simulation study is conducted to assess the finite sample performance of the proposed method, and the results indicate that it works well in practice. Finally, the approach is applied to a set of real data on childhood mortality taken from the Nigeria Demographic and Health Survey.　　欢迎广大师生前来聆听！主办单位：石河子大学理学院
