Inferences for the Change-Point of The Exponentiated Weibull Hazard Function

open access: yesRevstat Statistical Journal, 2012
In many applications of lifetime data analysis, it is important to perform inferences about the change-point of the hazard function. The change-point could be a maximum for unimodal hazard functions or a minimum for bathtub forms of hazard functions and

Various Characterizations of Modified Weibull and Log Modified Distributions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Various characterizations of the well-known modifiedWeibull and log-modifiedWeibull distributions are presented. These characterizations are based on a simple relationship between two truncated moments; on the hazard function and on functions of the ...

Feasibility and Preliminary Efficacy of Integrative Neuromuscular Training for Childhood Cancer Survivors: A Pilot Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) often exhibit early deficits in muscle and movement competence, which can compromise long‐term health. Integrative neuromuscular training (INT), a multifaceted approach combining fundamental movement activities with strength exercises, may help address these deficits during ...

Detecting Clinical Risk Shift Through log–logistic Hazard Change-Point Model

open access: yesMathematics
The change–point problem is about identifying when a pattern or trend shifts in time–ordered data. In survival analysis, change–point detection focuses on identifying alterations in the distribution of time–to–event data, which may be subject to ...

The Use of Hazard Models for the Analysis of Income Inequalities in Poland

open access: yesFolia Oeconomica Stetinensia, 2018
The aim of the paper is to examine the income inequalities of men and women in Poland. We estimate conditional cumulative distribution functions for incomes in both groups of people using a flexible hazard-function based estimator in the presence of ...

Nonparametric estimation of a convex bathtub-shaped hazard function

open access: yes, 2010
In this paper, we study the nonparametric maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) of a convex hazard function. We show that the MLE is consistent and converges at a local rate of $n^{2/5}$ at points $x_0$ where the true hazard function is positive and ...

The Role of Invasive Procedures in the Treatment of Complicated Gastrointestinal Graft‐Versus‐Host Disease in Pediatric Patients

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Gastrointestinal graft‐versus‐host disease (GI GVHD) following hematopoietic stem cell transplant is typically managed with medical therapy, but surgery and angioembolization may be warranted in selected cases with life‐threatening complications.

Profit Optimalization in Operation Systems

open access: yesPolish Maritime Research, 2016
The aim of this study is to analyse the effect of reducing the number of secondary damage to profit from the work of a technical object. Considering the criterion function that describes the average profit from the work of a technical object in the ...

The Cause Specific Hazard Quantile Function

open access: yesAustrian Journal of Statistics, 2018
In this paper, we discuss modeling and analysis of competing risks data using the quantile function. We introduce and study the cause specific hazard quantile function.
