CURRENT STATUS DATA WITH COMPETING RISKS: LIMITING DISTRIBUTION OF THE MLE. [PDF]
Annals of Statistics, 2006 We study nonparametric estimation for current status data with competing risks. Our main interest is in the nonparametric maximum likelihood estimator (MLE), and for comparison we also consider a simpler 'naive estimator'.

Working from home and income inequality: risks of a ‘new normal’ with COVID-19
Journal of Population Economics, 2020 In the current context of the COVID-19 pandemic, working from home (WFH) became of great importance for a large share of employees since it represents the only option to both continue working and minimise the risk of virus exposure. Uncertainty about the

Design of a Quick Switching Sampling System Based on the Coefficient of Variation
Technologies, 2018 In this research, a quick switching sampling (QSS) system based on the coefficient of variation (CV) is developed, which utilizes information from present and previous lots to make a decision about the submitted lot of product.

DeepHit: A Deep Learning Approach to Survival Analysis With Competing Risks
AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 2018 Survival analysis (time-to-event analysis) is widely used in economics and finance, engineering, medicine and many other areas. A fundamental problem is to understand the relationship between the covariates and the (distribution of) survival times ...

Detection of Heavy Metals, Their Distribution in Tilapia spp., and Health Risks Assessment
Toxics, 2023 Concentrations of heavy metals (HMs) were assessed in Tilapia spp. from selected communities in Calapan City, Philippines. Eleven (11) inland farmed tilapia samples were collected and analyzed for HMs concentration using X-ray fluorescence (XRF).

Fair risk optimization of distributed systems
Annals of Operations ResearchAbstract The paper provides a framework for the assessment and optimization of the total risk of complex distributed systems. The framework takes into account the risk of each agent, which may arise from heterogeneous sources, as well as the risk associated with the efficient operation of the system as a whole. The challenges posed by

On Progressive Censored Competing Risks Data: Real Data Application and Simulation Study
Mathematics, 2021 Competing risks are frequently overlooked, and the event of interest is analyzed with conventional statistical techniques. In this article, we consider the analysis of bi-causes of failure in the context of competing risk models using the extension of ...

Risk Analysis of Distributed Generation Scenarios
Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Operations Research and Enterprise Systems, 2019 Assertiveness in generation forecast is an important issue for utilities when they are planning their operation. Hydropower Generation forecast has a strong stochastic component and thinking about small hydropower plants (SHP) is even more complex.
