Semi-Competing Risks Data Analysis
Hospital readmission is a key marker of quality of healthcare; it has been used to investigate variation in quality among patients in a broad range of clinical contexts and has become an important policy measure. Notwithstanding its widespread use, however, readmission remains controversial as a measure of quality. Among the concerns raised, whether and how patient deaths are handled in the ana...
متن کاملLikelihood-Based Inference for Semi-Competing Risks
Consider semi-competing risks data (two times to concurrent events are studied but only one of them is right-censored by the other one) where the link between the times Y and C to non-terminal and terminal events respectively, is modeled by a family of Archimedean copulas. Moreover, both Y and C are submitted to an independent right censoring variable D. A new methodology based on a maximum lik...
متن کاملA multivariate dependence measure for aggregating risks
To evaluate the aggregate risk in a financial or insurance portfolio, a risk analyst has to calculate the distribution function of a sum of random variables. As the individual risk factors are often positively dependent, the classical convolution technique will not be sufficient. On the other hand, assuming a comonotonic dependence structure will likely overrate the real aggregate risk. In orde...
متن کاملSemi-parametric inferences for association with semi-competing risks data.
In many biomedical studies, it is of interest to assess dependence between bivariate failure time data. We focus here on a special type of such data, referred to as semi-competing risks data. In this article, we develop methods for making inferences regarding dependence of semi-competing risks data across strata of a discrete covariate Z. A class of rank statistics for testing constancy of asso...
متن کاملParametric Estimation in a Recurrent Competing Risks Model
A resource-efficient approach to making inferences about the distributional properties of the failure times in a competing risks setting is presented. Efficiency is gained by observing recurrences of the compet- ing risks over a random monitoring period. The resulting model is called the recurrent competing risks model (RCRM) and is coupled with two repair strategies whenever the system fails. ...
