Comparison of resampling method applied to censored data

Comparison of Tree-Based Ensembles in Application to Censored Data

In the paper the comparison of ensemble based methods applied to censored survival data was conducted. Bagging survival trees, dipolar survival tree ensemble and random forest were taken into consideration. The prediction ability was evaluated by the integrated Brier score, the prediction measure developed for survival data. Two real datasets with different percentage of censored observations w...

Resampling Methods in Complex Survey Data

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,...

Robust high-dimensional semiparametric regression using optimized differencing method applied to the vitamin B2 production data

Background and purpose: By evolving science, knowledge, and technology, we deal with high-dimensional data in which the number of predictors may considerably exceed the sample size. The main problems with high-dimensional data are the estimation of the coefficients and interpretation. For high-dimension problems, classical methods are not reliable because of a large number of predictor variable...

Comparison of three Estimation Procedures for Weibull Distribution based on Progressive Type II Right Censored Data

In this paper, based on the progressive type II right censored data, we consider estimates of MLE and AMLE of scale and shape parameters of weibull distribution. Also a new type of parameter estimation, named inverse estimation, is introdued for both shape and scale parameters of weibull distribution which is used from order statistics properties in it. We use simulations and study the biases a...
