Global Behavior of a Discrete Survival Model with Several Delays [PDF]
Journal of Applied Mathematics, 2013 The difference equationyn+1−yn=−αyn+∑j=1mβje−γjyn−kjis studied and some sufficient conditions which guarantee that all solutions of the equation are oscillatory, or that the positive equilibrium of the equation is globally asymptotically stable, are obtained.

Variable selection in discrete survival models including heterogeneity [PDF]
Lifetime Data Analysis, 2016 Several variable selection procedures are available for continuous time-to-event data. However, if time is measured in a discrete way and therefore many ties occur models for continuous time are inadequate. We propose penalized likelihood methods that perform efficient variable selection in discrete survival modeling with explicit modeling of the ...

Discrete-Time Survival Mixture Analysis [PDF]
Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2005 This article proposes a general latent variable approach to discrete-time survival analysis of nonrepeatable events such as onset of drug use. It is shown how the survival analysis can be formulated as a generalized latent class analysis of event history indicators.

Survival prediction models: an introduction to discrete-time modeling
BMC Medical Research Methodology, 2022 AbstractBackgroundPrediction models for time-to-event outcomes are commonly used in biomedical research to obtain subject-specific probabilities that aid in making important clinical care decisions. There are several regression and machine learning methods for building these models that have been designed or modified to account for the censoring that ...

Spectro-consistent discretization of Navier-Stokes: a challenge to RANS and LES [PDF]
, 1998 In this paper, we discuss the results of a fourth-order, spectro-consistent discretization of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. In such an approach the discretization of a (skew-)symmetric operator is given by a (skew-)symmetric matrix ...

Discrete exterior geometry approach to structure-preserving discretization of distributed-parameter port-Hamiltonian systems [PDF]
, 2011 This paper addresses the issue of structure-preserving discretization of open distributed-parameter systems with Hamiltonian dynamics. Employing the formalism of discrete exterior calculus, we introduce a simplicial Dirac structure as a discrete analogue
