Random survival forests for competing risks.
We introduce a new approach to competing risks using random forests. Our method is fully non-parametric and can be used for selecting event-specific variables and for estimating the cumulative incidence function. We show that the method is highly effective for both prediction and variable selection in high-dimensional problems and in settings such as HIV/AIDS that involve many competing risks.
متن کاملComparison of Random Survival Forests for Competing Risks and Regression Models in Determining Mortality Risk Factors in Breast Cancer Patients in Mahdieh Center, Hamedan, Iran
Introduction: Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers among women worldwide. Patients with cancer may die due to disease progression or other types of events. These different event types are called competing risks. This study aimed to determine the factors affecting the survival of patients with breast cancer using three different approaches: cause-specific hazards regression, subdistri...
متن کاملRandom Survival Forests
We introduce random survival forests, a random forests method for the analysis of right-censored survival data. New survival splitting rules for growing survival trees are introduced, as is a new missing data algorithm for imputing missing data. A conservation-of-events principle for survival forests is introduced and used to define ensemble mortality, a simple interpretable measure of mortalit...

متن کاملCompeting Risks and Survival Tree Ensemble
In the paper the ensemble of dipolar trees for analysis of competing risks is proposed. The tool is build on the base of the learning sets, which contain the data from clinical studies following patients response for a given treatment. In case of competing risks many types of response are investigated. The proposed method is able to cope with incomplete (censored) observations and as a result, ...
