Regularization Paths for Cox's Proportional Hazards Model via Coordinate Descent [PDF]
We introduce a pathwise algorithm for the Cox proportional hazards model, regularized by convex combinations of l1 and l2 penalties (elastic net). Our algorithm fits via cyclical coordinate descent, and employs warm starts to find a solution along a ...

The Two-Way Proportional Hazards Model [PDF]
SummarySurvival analysis problems often involve dual timescales, most commonly calendar date and lifetime, the latter being the elapsed time since an initiating event such as a heart transplant. In our main example attention is focused on the hazard rate of ‘death’ as a function of calendar date.

Does the Tax Cuts Policy Lower Firm Survival Risk? Evidence from China [PDF]
This paper examines the effect of tax cuts policy on firm survival risk. We analyze a panel data of China’s listed companies over the period 20082021 based on two different techniques: Kaplan-Meier survival estimator and the Cox proportional hazards ...

Generalized Proportional Reversed Hazards Model [PDF]
Inthis paper, we propose to generalized proportional reversed hazards model by Tsx*,t=[Ts,(X, t)]a, where Tsx*,tis baseline distribution func- tion and a is a positive real number.

Using Wavelet Shrinkage in the Cox Proportional Hazards Regression model (simulation study) [PDF]
The proposed method in this paper dealt with the problem of data contamination in the Cox Proportional Hazards Regression model (CPHRM) by using Wavelet Shrinkage to de-noise data, calculating the discrete wavelet transformation coefficients for wavelets

Two-Level Proportional Hazards Models [PDF]
We extend the proportional hazards model to a two-level model with a random intercept term and random coefficients. The parameters in the multilevel model are estimated by a combination of EM and Newton-Raphson algorithms. Even for samples of 50 groups, this method produces estimators of the fixed effects coefficients that are approximately unbiased ...

Partial Orders with Respect to Continuous Covariates and Tests for the Proportional Hazards Model [PDF]
Several omnibus tests of the proportional hazards assumption have been proposed in the literature. In the two-sample case, tests have also been developed against ordered alternatives like monotone hazard ratio and monotone ratio of cumulative hazards ...

Generating Survival Times to Simulate Cox Proportional Hazards Models [PDF]
This paper discusses techniques to generate survival times for simulation studies regarding Cox proportional hazards models. In linear regression models, the response variable is directly connected with the considered covariates, the regression ...

Background Uganda just like any other Sub-Saharan African country, has a high under-five child mortality rate. To inform policy on intervention strategies, sound statistical methods are required to critically identify factors strongly associated with ...
