Understanding Landmarking and Its Relation with Time-Dependent Cox Regression
نویسندگان
چکیده
Time-dependent Cox regression and landmarking are the two most commonly used approaches for the analysis of time-dependent covariates in time-to-event data. The estimated effect of the time-dependent covariate in a landmarking analysis is based on the value of the time-dependent covariate at the landmark time point, after which the time-dependent covariate may change value. In this note we derive expressions for the (time-varying) regression coefficient of the time-dependent covariate in the landmark analysis, in terms of the regression coefficient and baseline hazard of the time-dependent Cox regression. These relations are illustrated using simulation studies and using the Stanford heart transplant data.

متن کاملMaintainability measure based on operating environment, a case study: Sungun copper mine
The life cycle cost of a system is influenced by its maintainability. Maintainability is a design parameter, whose operational conditions can affect it significantly. Hence, the effects of these operational conditions should be quantified early in the design phase. The proportional repair model (PRM), which is developed based on the proportional hazard model (PHM), can be used to analyze mainta...
