model which permits unrestricted correlation among the risks. Unemployment duration data are then analysed using the flexible parametric duration and competing risks specifications. We find an important ...
of the most popular forms of parametric approaches with advantages in flexibility and simplicity of hazard functions and survival functions . Stratified Cox regression is a semi- parametric approach method ...
that this estimator results in consistent and asymptotically normal estimates. Secondly, a goodness-of-fit test is developed to check the model's validity. To estimate the distribution of the statistic, a parametric ...
Unemployment durations are generally modelled by using survival analysis. In the past, in Britain, all such studies have not only used very restrictive parametric specifications of the hazard ...
models to estimate vehicular delay and demonstrates the usefulness of such models as a basis for a fully automated motorist information system. The paper also explores the flexibility of duration models ...
Kernel regression is a nonparametric procedure that provides good approximations to individual serial data. The method is useful and flexible when a parametric method is inappropriate due ...
of the covariant. Using a restricted cubic spline function of log time to transform the function [20], the log cumulative hazard function of the flexible parametric model based on a log cumulative hazard scale can ...
data from clinical trials. Method The main idea is to mix a flexible model (e.g., Cox semi- parametric ) to fit as well as possible the observed data and a parametric model encoding assumptions ...
