The accelerated failure time model under biased sampling.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Chen (2009, Biometrics) studies the semi-parametric accelerated failure time model for data that are size biased. Chen considers only the uncensored case and uses hazard-based estimation methods originally developed for censored observations. However, for uncensored data, a simple linear regression on the log scale is more natural and provides better estimators.

Monitoring Lognormal Reliability Data in a Two-Stage Process Using Accelerated Failure Time Model
The reliability data is getting used to monitor and improve the quality of products or services. Nowadays, most of products or services are the results of processes with dependent stages referred to as multi-stage process. In these processes, the quality characteristics are affected by the quality characteristics in the previous stages, called as cascade property. In some cases, it is not possi...
متن کاملSemiparametric Accelerated Failure Time Model for Length-biased Data with Application to Dementia Study.
A semiparametric accelerated failure time (AFT) model is proposed to evaluate the effects of risk factors on the unbiased failure times for the target population given the observed length-biased data. The analysis of length-biased data is complicated by informative right censoring due to the biased sampling mechanism, and consequently the techniques for conventional survival analysis are not ap...
متن کاملAccelerated failure time model under general biased sampling scheme.
Right-censored time-to-event data are sometimes observed from a (sub)cohort of patients whose survival times can be subject to outcome-dependent sampling schemes. In this paper, we propose a unified estimation method for semiparametric accelerated failure time models under general biased estimating schemes. The proposed estimator of the regression covariates is developed upon a bias-offsetting ...

In this paper, we consider an i.e., multiple step-stress accelerated life testing (ALT) experiment with unequal duration of time . It is assumed that the time to failure of a product follows Rayleigh distribution with a log-linear relationship between stress and lifetime and also we assume a generalized Khamis-Higgins model for the effect of changing stress levels. Taking into account that the...
