Discrete-Time Survival Trees and Forests with Time-Varying Covariates: Application to Bankruptcy Data
نویسندگان
چکیده
Discrete-time survival data with time-varying covariates are often encountered in practice. One such example is bankruptcy studies where the status of each firm is available on a yearly basis. Moreover, these studies often use financial and accounting based ratios to predict bankruptcy. These ratios are also yearly measures and hence are time-varying. In this paper, we propose a new survival tree method for discrete-time survival data with time-varying covariates. This method can accommodate simultaneously time-varying covariates and time-varying effects. The new method is applied to a sample of United States firms that conducted an Initial Public Offerings between 1990 and 1999.

Comparison of Survival Forests in Analyzing First Birth Interval
Background and objectives: Application of statistical machine learning methods such as ensemble based approaches in survival analysis has been received considerable interest over the past decades in time-to-event data sets. One of these practical methods is survival forests which have been developed in a variety of contexts due to their high precision, non-parametric and non-linear nature. This...
متن کاملSpatial Modeling of Censored Survival Data
An important issue in survival data analysis is the identification of risk factors. Some of these factors are identifiable and explainable by presence of some covariates in the Cox proportional hazard model, while the others are unidentifiable or even immeasurable. Spatial correlation of censored survival data is one of these sources that are rarely considered in the literatures. In this paper,...

This paper focuses on the problem of finite-time boundedness and finite-time passivity of discrete-time T-S fuzzy neural networks with time-varying delays. A suitable Lyapunov--Krasovskii functional(LKF) is established to derive sufficient condition for finite-time passivity of discrete-time T-S fuzzy neural networks. The dynamical system is transformed into a T-S fuzzy model with uncertain par...

Background and Aim: In many medical studies along with longitudinal data, which are repeatedly measured during a certain time period, survival data are also recorded. In these situations, using models such as, mixed effects models or GEE method for longitudinal data and Cox model for survival data, are not appropriate because some necessary assumptions are not met. Instead, the joint models hav...

We decompose time-varying beta for stock into beta for continuous systematic risk and beta for discontinuous systematic risk. Brownian motion is assumed as nature of price movements in our modeling. Our empirical research is based on high-frequency data for stocks from Tehran Stock Exchange. Our market portfolio experiences 136 days out of 243 trading days with jumps which is a considerable rat...
