Using multiple classifiers for predicting the risk of endovascular aortic aneurysm repair re-intervention through hybrid feature selection. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Feature selection is essential in medical area; however, its process becomes complicated with the presence of censoring which is the unique character of survival analysis.

Asymptotic Relative Efficiency of Parametric and Nonparametric Survival Estimators

open access: yesStats, 2023
The dominance of non- and semi-parametric methods in survival analysis is not without criticism. Several studies have highlighted the decrease in efficiency compared to parametric methods. We revisit the problem of Asymptotic Relative Efficiency (ARE) of

Comparing Survival Curves Using Rank Tests [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
Survival times of patients can be compared using rank tests in various experimental setups, including the two-sample case and the case of paired data. Attention is focussed on two frequently occurring complications in medical applications: censoring and ...

Likelihood Inference for Copula Models Based on Left-Truncated and Competing Risks Data from Field Studies

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
Survival and reliability analyses deal with incomplete failure time data, such as censored and truncated data. Recently, the classical left-truncation scheme was generalized to analyze “field data”, defined as samples collected within a fixed period ...

Censoring Distances Based on Labeled Cortical Distance Maps in Cortical Morphometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Shape differences are manifested in cortical structures due to neuropsychiatric disorders. Such differences can be measured by labeled cortical distance mapping (LCDM) which characterizes the morphometry of the laminar cortical mantle of cortical ...

Minimum Message Length Inference of the Exponential Distribution with Type I Censoring

open access: yesEntropy, 2021
Data with censoring is common in many areas of science and the associated statistical models are generally estimated with the method of maximum likelihood combined with a model selection criterion such as Akaike’s information criterion.

A note on the estimation of confidence intervals for cost-effectiveness when costs and effects are censored [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
<i>Background</i>. The relation between methodological advances in estimation of confidence intervals (CIs) for incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICER) and estimation of cost effectiveness in the presence of censoring has not been ...
