A semiparametric cure model for interval-censored data.
There is a growing interest in the analysis of survival data with a cured proportion particularly in tumor recurrences studies. Biologically, it is reasonable to assume that the recurrence time is mainly affected by the overall health condition of the patient that depends on some covariates such as age, sex, or treatment type received. We propose a semiparametric frailty-Cox cure model to quant...
متن کاملMaximum likelihood estimation for semiparametric transformation models with interval-censored data
Interval censoring arises frequently in clinical, epidemiological, financial and sociological studies, where the event or failure of interest is known only to occur within an interval induced by periodic monitoring. We formulate the effects of potentially time-dependent covariates on the interval-censored failure time through a broad class of semiparametric transformation models that encompasse...
متن کاملMaximum likelihood estimation in semiparametric regression models with censored data
Semiparametric regression models play a central role in formulating the effects of covariates on potentially censored failure times and in the joint modelling of incomplete repeated measures and failure times in longitudinal studies. The presence of infinite dimensional parameters poses considerable theoretical and computational challenges in the statistical analysis of such models. We present ...
متن کاملSieve Estimation with Bivariate Interval Censored Data
Bivariate interval censored data arises in many applications. However, both theoretical and computational investigations for this type of data are limited because of the complicated structure of bivariate censoring. In this paper, we propose a two-stage spline-based sieve estimator for the association between two event times with bivariate case 2 interval censored data. A smooth and explicit es...
متن کاملSemiparametric Additive Risks Model for Interval-censored Data
Interval-censored event time data often arise in medical and public health studies. In such a setting, the exact time of the event of interest cannot be observed and is only known to fall between two monitoring times. Our interest focuses on the estimation of the effect of risk factors on interval-censored data under the semiparametric additive hazards model. A nonparametric step-function is us...
