Comparing Two Treatments with Multiple Competing Risks Endpoints
The problem of testing for differences between two treatments with respect to multiple competing risk time-to-event endpoints is considered. Using a nonparametric approach, a multivariate two-sample statistic is proposed for simultaneous testing for differences in cumulative incidence of the multiple competing survival endpoints. Establishment of the statistical properties of the test requires ...
متن کاملInference for Comparing Two Treatments Using Kernel Density Estimation
In randomized clinical trials, nonparametric approaches are considered when assumptions of a parametric approach are not reasonable. Nonparametric approaches have typically concentrated on hypothesis testing and, unlike parametric approaches, have not been amenable to providing measures of treatment efficacy. If X and Y denote the random variables representing the responses on two treatments A ...
متن کاملAlternating treatments design: one strategy for comparing the effects of two treatments in a single subject.
A little used and often confused design, capable of comparing two treatments within a single subject, has been termed, variously, a multielement baseline design, a multiple schedule design, and a randomization design. The background of these terms is reviewed, and a new, more descriptive term, Alternating Treatments Design, is proposed. Critical differences between this design and a Simultaneou...
متن کاملTheory decision by decomposition
The topic of this article is decision procedures for satisfiability modulo theories (SMT) of arbitrary quantifier-free formulæ. We propose an approach that decomposes the formula in such a way that its definitional part, including the theory, can be compiled by a rewrite-based firstorder theorem prover, and the residual problem can be decided by an SMT-solver, based on the Davis-Putnam-Logemann...
متن کاملComparing Techniques for Preference Relaxation: A Decision Theory Perspective
This research proposes a decision aid based on a novel type of preference relaxation, which enables consumers to easily make quality choices in online multiattribute choice scenarios. In contrast to filtering and recommendation mechanisms that are a potential solution to this problem, our method combines decision theory with preference relaxation and enables consumers to consider high-quality a...
