Predictive capability of proportional hazards regression.
A measure of the predictive capability of a proportional hazards regression is derived. The measure is based on the residuals appropriate to proportional hazards regression. A population version is presented and can be seen not to depend on the censoring mechanism under the provision that any such censoring be independent or conditionally independent of the failure mechanism given the covariate...
متن کاملProportional Hazards Regression with Unknown Link Function
Proportional hazards regression model assumes that the covariates affect the hazard function through a link function and an index which is a linear function of the covariates. Traditional approaches, such as the Cox proportional hazards model, focus on estimating the unknown index by assuming a known link function between the log-hazard function and covariates. A linear link function is often e...
متن کاملDensity Regression Based on Proportional Hazards Family
This paper develops a class of density regression models based on proportional hazards family, namely, Gamma transformation proportional hazard (Gt-PH) model . Exact inference for the regression parameters and hazard ratio is derived. These estimators enjoy some good properties such as unbiased estimation, which may not be shared by other inference methods such as maximum likelihood estimate (M...
متن کاملProportional hazards regression for cancer studies.
There has been some recent work in the statistical literature for modeling the relationship between the size of cancers and probability of detecting metastasis, i.e., aggressive disease. Methods for assessing covariate effects in these studies are limited. In this article, we formulate the problem as assessing covariate effects on a right-censored variable subject to two types of sampling bias....
متن کاملHandling survival bias in proportional hazards models: A frailty approach
Survival bias is a potential problem when subjects are lost to follow-up, and this selection issue may arise in a wide range of biomedical studies. Controlling for the bias is difficult because subjects may be lost due to unmeasured factors. This article presents a two-step method that adjusts for survival bias in the proportional hazards model, even when unmeasured factors influence survival. ...
