Semiparametric Normal Transformation Models for Spatially Correlated Survival Data
There is an emerging interest in modeling spatially correlated survival data in biomedical and epidemiologic studies. In this article we propose a new class of semiparametric normal transformation models for right-censored spatially correlated survival data. This class of models assumes that survival outcomes marginally follow a Cox proportional hazard model with unspecified baseline hazard, an...
متن کاملSemiparametric transformation models for semicompeting survival data.
Semicompeting risk outcome data (e.g., time to disease progression and time to death) are commonly collected in clinical trials. However, analysis of these data is often hampered by a scarcity of available statistical tools. As such, we propose a novel semiparametric transformation model that improves the existing models in the following two ways. First, it estimates regression coefficients and...
متن کاملSemiparametric Transformation Models for Survival Data with a Cure Fraction
We propose a class of transformation models for survival data with a cure fraction. The class of transformation models is motivated by biological considerations, and it includes both the proportional hazards and the proportional odds cure models as two special cases. An efficient recursive algorithm is proposed to calculate the maximum likelihood estimators. Furthermore, the maximum likelihood ...
متن کاملSemiparametric Maximum Likelihood Estimation in Normal Transformation Models for Bivariate Survival Data.
We consider a class of semiparametric normal transformation models for right censored bivariate failure times. Nonparametric hazard rate models are transformed to a standard normal model and a joint normal distribution is assumed for the bivariate vector of transformed variates. A semiparametric maximum likelihood estimation procedure is developed for estimating the marginal survival distributi...
متن کاملModelling spatially correlated survival data for individuals with multiple cancers.
Epidemiologists and biostatisticians investigating spatial variation in diseases are often interested in estimating spatial effects in survival data, where patients are monitored until their time to failure (for example, death, relapse). Spatial variation in survival patterns often reveals underlying lurking factors, which, in turn, assist public health professionals in their decision-making pr...
