Bayesian variable selection for a semi-competing risks model with three hazard functions
A variable selection procedure is developed for a semi-competing risks regression model with three hazard functions that uses spike-and-slab priors and stochastic search variable selection algorithms for posterior inference. A rule is devised for choosing the threshold on the marginal posterior probability of variable inclusion based on the Deviance Information Criterion (DIC) that is examined ...
متن کاملAdditive Hazard Model with Additive Frailty for Semi-Competing Risks Data
We proposed an illness-death model with Lin and Ying's additive hazard and additive frailty for the regression analysis on semi-competing risks problem in a general morbidity/mortality process. Comparing with the Cox-type hazard, the additive hazard function is more natural and properly partitions the effect of the covariate on one transition into the other transition, internal consistency in t...
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. ...
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 کاملCompeting Risks Model for Corporate Exit Analysis : Discrete Hazard Model and Extension with Stochastic Frailties
Publicly traded companies can leave a public system by bankruptcy or an exit due to merger. Discrete sub-hazard functions are modeled with a multinomial logit model. For 12,571 U.S. industrial firms spanning 1980 to 2004, quarterly firm specific financial variables and macroeconomic variables are available. Time-varying baseline hazard functions may capture unobservable or missing macroeconomic...
