estimation of excess hazard using compound poisson frailty model
b a c k g r o u n d & aim: the excess hazard rate proposed by andersen and vaeth may underestimate the long-term excess hazard rate for cancer survival. zahl explained the phenomenon by continuous selection of the most robust individuals after diagnosis. he applied correlated inverse gaussian and gamma frailty models to estimate excess intensity and reached a better estimate of the rat...
متن کاملHierarchical Compound Poisson Factorization
Non-negative matrix factorization models based on a hierarchical Gamma-Poisson structure capture user and item behavior effectively in extremely sparse data sets, making them the ideal choice for collaborative filtering applications. Hierarchical Poisson factorization (HPF) in particular has proved successful for scalable recommendation systems with extreme sparsity. HPF, however, suffers from ...
متن کاملHierarchical Bayesian Analysis of Bivariate Poisson Regression Model
This article is concerned with the analysis of correlated count data, a class of model in which the correlation between the counts is presented by correlated unobserved heterogeneity components. A Hierarchical Bayesian analysis is used for estimation of the parameters. A Gibbs sampling algorithm is suggested for find posterior densities of parameters. The proposed method is applied to IVF data ...
متن کاملMeasuring effectiveness in community randomized trials of HIV prevention.
BACKGROUND Complicated HIV transmission dynamics make it unclear how to design and interpret results from community-randomized controlled trials (CRCT) of interventions to prevent infection. METHODS Mathematical modelling was used to investigate the effectiveness of interventions to prevent HIV transmission aimed at high-risk groups and factors related to the chance of recording a statistical...
متن کاملBayesian Estimation in Shared Compound Negative Binomial Frailty Models
Frailty models are used in survival analysis to model unobserved heterogeneity. To study such heterogeneity by the inclusion of a random term called the frailty is assumed to multiply hazards of all subjects in the shared frailty. We study compound negative binomial distribution as frailty distribution and two different baseline distributions namely Pareto and linear failure rate distribution i...
