Parametric Estimation in a Recurrent Competing Risks Model
A resource-efficient approach to making inferences about the distributional properties of the failure times in a competing risks setting is presented. Efficiency is gained by observing recurrences of the compet- ing risks over a random monitoring period. The resulting model is called the recurrent competing risks model (RCRM) and is coupled with two repair strategies whenever the system fails. ...

متن کاملInvestigating hospital heterogeneity with a multi-state frailty model: application to nosocomial pneumonia disease in intensive care units
BACKGROUND Multistate models have become increasingly useful to study the evolution of a patient's state over time in intensive care units ICU (e.g. admission, infections, alive discharge or death in ICU). In addition, in critically-ill patients, data come from different ICUs, and because observations are clustered into groups (or units), the observed outcomes cannot be considered as independen...
متن کاملAdditive Hazard Model with Additive Frailty for Semi-Competing Risks Data
We proposed an illness-death model with Lin and Ying's additive hazard and additive frailty for the regression analysis on semi-competing risks problem in a general morbidity/mortality process. Comparing with the Cox-type hazard, the additive hazard function is more natural and properly partitions the effect of the covariate on one transition into the other transition, internal consistency in t...
متن کاملA Competing Risks Model with Time-varying Heterogeneity and Simultaneous Failure
This paper proposes a new bivariate competing risks model that speci es each marginal duration as the rst time a Lévy subordinator crosses a random threshold. Our speci cation is a natural variant of the competing risks version of the mixed proportional hazards model, but it allows time-varying heterogeneity and simultaneous termination of both durations. When the structural multiplicative e¤e...
