Asymmetric Regression Models Bernoulli / Log Proportional - Hazard Distribution

چکیده
In this paper we introduce a kind of asymmetric distribution for nonnegative data called log-proportional hazard distribution (LPHF). This new distribution is used to study an asymmetrical regression model for data with limited responses (censored) through the mixture of a Bernoulli distribution with logit link and the LPHF distribution. Properties of the LPHF distribution are studied, maximum likelihood parameter estimation and information matrices are addressed. An illustration with real data shows that the model is a new alternative for studies with positive data censored.

Effects of Model Misspecification in Estimating Covariate Effects in Survival Analysis for Small Sample Sizes
The results of a Monte Carlo study of the size and power of parametric and semiparametric approaches to inference on covariate effects in survival (time-to-events) models in the presence of model misspecification and an independent censoring mechanism are reported. Basic models employed are a parametric model, where both a baseline distribution and the dependence structure of covariates on the ...

There are three broad classes of models used to address the econometric problems caused by skewness in data commonly encountered in health care applications: (1) transformation to deal with skewness (e.g., OLS on ln(y)); (2) alternative weighting approaches based on exponential conditional models (ECM) and generalized linear model (GLM) approaches; and (3) survival models (Cox proportional haza...
متن کاملBayesian proportional hazards model with time-varying regression coefficients: a penalized Poisson regression approach.
One can fruitfully approach survival problems without covariates in an actuarial way. In narrow time bins, the number of people at risk is counted together with the number of events. The relationship between time and probability of an event can then be estimated with a parametric or semi-parametric model. The number of events observed in each bin is described using a Poisson distribution with t...
متن کاملPolynomial spline estimation of partially linear single-index proportional hazards regression models
The Cox proportional hazards (PH) model usually assumes linearity of the covariates on the log hazard function, which may be violated because linearity cannot always be guaranteed. We propose a partially linear single-index proportional hazards regression model, which can model both linear and nonlinear covariate effects on the log hazard in the proportional hazards model. We adopt a polynomial...
متن کاملGenerating Survival Times to Simulate Cox Proportional Hazards Models
Number of words: 2795 (excluding summary, references and tables) 2 SUMMARY This paper discusses techniques to generate survival times for simulation studies regarding Cox proportional hazards models. In linear regression models, the response variable is directly connected with the considered covariates, the regression coefficients and the simulated random errors. Thus, the response variable can...
