Semiparametric Accelerated Failure Time Model for Length-biased Data with Application to Dementia Study.
A semiparametric accelerated failure time (AFT) model is proposed to evaluate the effects of risk factors on the unbiased failure times for the target population given the observed length-biased data. The analysis of length-biased data is complicated by informative right censoring due to the biased sampling mechanism, and consequently the techniques for conventional survival analysis are not ap...
متن کاملRegression calibration in semiparametric accelerated failure time models.
In large cohort studies, it often happens that some covariates are expensive to measure and hence only measured on a validation set. On the other hand, relatively cheap but error-prone measurements of the covariates are available for all subjects. Regression calibration (RC) estimation method (Prentice, 1982, Biometrika 69, 331-342) is a popular method for analyzing such data and has been appli...
متن کاملSemiparametric Transformation Models with Random Effects for Clustered Failure Time Data.
We propose a general class of semiparametric transformation models with random effects to formulate the effects of possibly time-dependent covariates on clustered or correlated failure times. This class encompasses all commonly used transformation models, including proportional hazards and proportional odds models, and it accommodates a variety of random-effects distributions, particularly Gaus...
متن کاملAsymptotic theory for the semiparametric accelerated failure time model with missing data
We consider a class of doubly weighted rank-based estimating methods for the transformation (or accelerated failure time) model with missing data as arise, for example, in case-cohort studies. The weights considered may not be predictable as required in a martingale stochastic process formulation. We treat the general problem as a semiparametric estimating equation problem and provide proofs of...
متن کاملSemiparametric transformation models for semicompeting survival data.
Semicompeting risk outcome data (e.g., time to disease progression and time to death) are commonly collected in clinical trials. However, analysis of these data is often hampered by a scarcity of available statistical tools. As such, we propose a novel semiparametric transformation model that improves the existing models in the following two ways. First, it estimates regression coefficients and...
