Bayesian Inference for Survival Data with Nonparametric Hazards and Vague
Statistical inference is reviewed for survival data applications with hazard models having one parameter per distinct failure time and using Jeffreys' (1961) vague priors. Distinction between a discrete hazard and a piecewise exponential model is made. Bayes estimators of survival probabilities ace derived. For a single sample and a discrete hazard, the Bayes estimator is shown to be larger tha...
متن کاملBayesian random-effects threshold regression with application to survival data with nonproportional hazards.
In epidemiological and clinical studies, time-to-event data often violate the assumptions of Cox regression due to the presence of time-dependent covariate effects and unmeasured risk factors. An alternative approach, which does not require proportional hazards, is to use a first hitting time model which treats a subject's health status as a latent stochastic process that fails when it reaches ...
متن کاملNonparametric Bayesian Inference For Survival Data
This article introduces a new Bayesian approach to the analysis of right-censored survival data. The hazard rate of interest is modeled as a product of conditionally independent stochastic processes, corresponding to (1) a baseline hazard function, and (2) a regression function representing the temporal innuence of the covariates. These processes jump at times that form time-homogeneous Poisson...

This paper reviews Bayesian Nonparametric methods and discusses how parametric predictive densities can be constructed using nonparametric ideas.
متن کاملBayesian Nonparametric Modeling of Suicide Attempts
The National Epidemiologic Survey on Alcohol and Related Conditions (NESARC) database contains a large amount of information, regarding the way of life, medical conditions, etc., of a representative sample of the U.S. population. In this paper, we are interested in seeking the hidden causes behind the suicide attempts, for which we propose to model the subjects using a nonparametric latent mode...
