A generalized F mixture model for cure rate estimation.
Cure rate estimation is an important issue in clinical trials for diseases such as lymphoma and breast cancer and mixture models are the main statistical methods. In the last decade, mixture models under different distributions, such as exponential, Weibull, log-normal and Gompertz, have been discussed and used. However, these models involve stronger distributional assumptions than is desirable...
متن کاملThe Comparison Between Goodness of Fit Tests for Copula
Copula functions as a model can show the relationship between variables. Appropriate copula function for a specific application is a function that shows the dependency between data in a best way. Goodness of fit tests theoretically are the best way in selection of copula function. Different ways of goodness of fit for copula exist. In this paper we will examine the goodness of fit test...
متن کاملDetermining the correlated factors of breast cancer recurrence by Poisson Beta-Weibull non- mixture cure model
Introduction: Therapies for many of diseases, especially cancer, have been improved significantly in the recent years, resulting in an increase in the number of patients who do not experience mortality. Therefore, the application of cure models is more suitable for survival analysis in this population than the usual survival models are. The aim of this study was to estimate the recurrence-free ...
متن کاملOn the Canonical-Based Goodness-of-fit Tests for Multivariate Skew-Normality
It is well-known that the skew-normal distribution can provide an alternative model to the normal distribution for analyzing asymmetric data. The aim of this paper is to propose two goodness-of-fit tests for assessing whether a sample comes from a multivariate skew-normal (MSN) distribution. We address the problem of multivariate skew-normality goodness-of-fit based on the empirical Laplace tra...
