Spatial Modeling of Censored Survival Data
An important issue in survival data analysis is the identification of risk factors. Some of these factors are identifiable and explainable by presence of some covariates in the Cox proportional hazard model, while the others are unidentifiable or even immeasurable. Spatial correlation of censored survival data is one of these sources that are rarely considered in the literatures. In this paper,...
متن کاملSmooth estimation of the survival function for interval censored data.
Interval censored data arise naturally in large-scale panel studies where subjects can only be followed periodically and the event of interest can only be observed in some time intervals. To estimate the survival function the non-parametric maximum likelihood estimator (NPMLE) is commonly used, which is a step function having some large jumps. However, in many applications the underlying surviv...
متن کاملKernel Ridge Estimator for the Partially Linear Model under Right-Censored Data
Objective: This paper aims to introduce a modified kernel-type ridge estimator for partially linear models under randomly-right censored data. Such models include two main issues that need to be solved: multi-collinearity and censorship. To address these issues, we improved the kernel estimator based on synthetic data transformation and kNN imputation techniques. The key idea of this paper is t...
متن کاملAn Unbiased Scattering Function Estimator for Fast Time-varying Channels*
E{S[m, I ] S*[m', l ' ] } = C[m, I ] 6[m m'] 6 [ l 1 ' 1 , (1) We propose an unbiased, computationally efficient estimator of the scattering function that is specifically suited to underspread WSSUS channels. The novel estimator allows for nonideal sounding signals, fast time-variation, and on-line where E denotes expectation, s[m, I1 = czzi h[n, m1 e-j21rln" is the (delay-Doppler) spreading fu...
متن کاملTurnbull’s Nonparametric Estimator for Interval-Censored Data
In most applications, the data may be interval-censored. By interval-censored data, we mean that a random variable of interest is known only to lie in an interval, instead of being observed exactly. In such cases, the only information we have for each individual is that their event time falls in an interval, but the exact time is unknown. A nonparametric estimate of the survival function can al...
