Goodness-of-fit test for the AFT model based on martingale residuals

چکیده

The Accelerated Failure Time model presents a way to easily describe survival regression data. It is assumed, that each observed unit ages internally faster or slower, depending on the covariate values. To use the model properly, we want to check if observed data fit the model assumptions. In present work we introduce a goodness-of-fit statistics based on modern martingale theory. On simulated data we try to estimate empirical properties of the test for various situations.

Goodness-of-fit test for the Accelerated Failure Time model based on martingale residuals

The Accelerated Failure Time model presents a way to easily describe survival regression data. It is assumed that each observed unit ages internally faster or slower, depending on the covariate values. To use the model properly, we want to check if observed data fit the model assumptions. In present work we introduce a goodness-of-fit testing procedure based on modern martingale theory. On simu...

A general goodness-of-fit test for survival analysis

Existing goodness-of-fit tests for survival data are either exclusively graphical in nature or only test specific model assumptions, such as the proportional hazards assumption. We describe a flexible, parameter-free goodnessof-fit test that provides a simple numerical assessment of a model’s suitability regardless of the structure of the underlying model. Intuitively, the goodnessof-fit test u...

Using Martingale Residuals to Assess Goodness-of-fit for Sampled Risk Set Data∗

Standard use of Cox’s regression model and other relative risk regression models for censored survival data requires collection of covariate information on all individuals under study even when only a small fraction of them die or get diseased. For such situations risk set sampling designs offer useful alternatives. For cohort data, methods based on martingale residuals are useful for assessing...

An Alternative Robust Model for in situ Degradation Studies “Korkmaz-Uckardes”

The first purpose of this study is to present an alternative robust model in order to describe ruminal degradation kinetics of forages and to minimize the fitting problems. For this purpose, the Korkmaz-Uckardes (KU) model, which has a logarithmic structure, was developed. The second purpose of this study is to estimate, by using the Korkmaz-Uckardes (KU)model, the parameters tp (the time to pr...

The evaluation of Cox and Weibull proportional hazards models and their applications to identify factors influencing survival time in acute leukem

Introduction: The most important models used in analysis of survival data is proportional hazards models. Applying this model requires establishment of the relevance proportional hazards assumption, otherwise it world lead to incorrect inference. This study aims to evaluate Cox and Weibull models which are used in identification of effective factors on survival time in acute leukemia. Me...
