Flexible parametric modelling of cause-specific hazards to estimate cumulative incidence functions
BACKGROUND Competing risks are a common occurrence in survival analysis. They arise when a patient is at risk of more than one mutually exclusive event, such as death from different causes, and the occurrence of one of these may prevent any other event from ever happening. METHODS There are two main approaches to modelling competing risks: the first is to model the cause-specific hazards and ...
متن کاملParametric regression on cumulative incidence function.
We propose parametric regression analysis of cumulative incidence function with competing risks data. A simple form of Gompertz distribution is used for the improper baseline subdistribution of the event of interest. Maximum likelihood inferences on regression parameters and associated cumulative incidence function are developed for parametric models, including a flexible generalized odds rate ...
متن کاملSmooth semi‐nonparametric (SNP) estimation of the cumulative incidence function
This paper presents a novel approach to estimation of the cumulative incidence function in the presence of competing risks. The underlying statistical model is specified via a mixture factorization of the joint distribution of the event type and the time to the event. The time to event distributions conditional on the event type are modeled using smooth semi-nonparametric densities. One strengt...
متن کاملParametric Modelling of Flexible Plate Structures Using Ant Colony Optimization
Background: This paper presents parametric modelling of flexible plate structures using ant colony optimization (ACO). The global optimization technique of ACO is utilized to obtain a dynamic model of a flexible plate structure based on one-step-ahead (OSA) prediction. Objective: The structure is subjected to three different disturbance signal types, namely random, pseudo random binary sequence...
متن کاملFlexible parametric joint modelling of longitudinal and survival data.
The joint modelling of longitudinal and survival data is a highly active area of biostatistical research. The submodel for the longitudinal biomarker usually takes the form of a linear mixed effects model. We describe a flexible parametric approach for the survival submodel that models the log baseline cumulative hazard using restricted cubic splines. This approach overcomes limitations of stan...
