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. ...

طول عمر بیماران مبتلا به سرطان معده پس از عمل جراحی:تحلیلی بر اساس رقابت جویی خطرات

Background and Aim: Many researchers have studied survival (time to death) of gastric cancer patients. Although gastric cancer diagnosed in early stages can be cured by surgery, chance of relapse still exists after operation. Hence, we should consider both events, that is, relapse of the disease and death, in order to be able to make a more precise estimation for survival of the patients. The p...
