Bayesian Bootstrap for Proportional Hazards Models
Bayesian bootstrap was proposed by Rubin (1981) and its theoretical properties and application to survival models without covariates was studies by Lo (1993) and others. Bayesian bootstrap, empirical likelihood and bootstrap are diierent approaches based on the same idea, approximating the nonparametric model with the family of distributions whose supports are the set of observations. Based on ...
متن کاملBayesian variable selection for proportional hazards models
The authors consider the problem of Bayesian variable selection for proportional hazards regression models with right censored data. They propose a semi-parametric approach in which a nonparametric prior is specified for the baseline hazard rate and a fully parametric prior is specified for the regression coefficients. For the baseline hazard, they use a discrete gamma process prior, and for th...
متن کاملPrior Distibutions Ans Bayesian Computation for Proportional Hazards Models
In this paper, we propose a class of informative prior distributions for Cox’s proportional hazards model. A novel construction of the prior is developed based on the notion of the availability of historical data. In many situations, especially in clinical trials, the investigator has historical data from past studies which are similar to the current study. We take a semi-parametric approach in...
متن کاملTwo-level proportional hazards models.
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 and normally distributed. Two different metho...
متن کاملExplained randomness in proportional hazards models.
A coefficient of explained randomness, analogous to explained variation but for non-linear models, was presented by Kent. The construct hinges upon the notion of Kullback-Leibler information gain. Kent and O'Quigley developed these ideas, obtaining simple, multiple and partial coefficients for the situation of proportional hazards regression. Their approach was based upon the idea of transformi...
