EXPECTATION MAXIMIZATION-BASED LIKELIHOOD INFERENCE FOR COM-POISSON CURE RATE MODEL WITH INTERVAL CENSORED DATA
Wiangnak, Piyachart; 0000-0003-3606-0921 (2016-12-02)A cure rate or long-term survival model is a model for survival data with the presence of a cure fraction. In this study, we consider the analysis of a cure rate model with interval-censored data, which is one of the most ... -
Likelihood Inference for Flexible Cure Models with Interval Censored Data
Treszoks, Jodi; 0000-0001-6213-1194 (2023-05-19)Models for survival data with a surviving fraction, known as cure rate models, play a vital role in survival analysis. Due to the improvement of intervening methodologies, some subjects are seen to be immune permanently. ... -
Likelihood Inference for Flexible Cure Rate Models in the Context of Infectious Diseases with Multiple Exposures
Engel, Zachry Joseph (2020-09-01)Cure rate models are mostly used to study data arising from cancer clinical trials. Its use in the context of infectious diseases has not been explored well. In 2007, Tournoud and Ecochard rst proposed a mechanistic ... -
ON DIFFERENT COMPUTATIONAL ASPECTS FOR BOX-COX TRANSFORMATION CURE RATE MODEL
Wang, Pei; 0000-0001-6386-7590 (2021-08-16)Cure rate modeling is an emerging area of research not only in biomedical science but also in other disciplines such as sociology, criminal justice, economics and engineering reliability. In the first part of this thesis, ... -
POSTERIOR NORMAL APPROXIMATION OF REAL-TIME DEGRADATION MODELING USING LAPLACE APPROXIMATION
Jawad, Mahmoud Ali (2018-09-05)Preventing failure that can cause delays or catastrophe, has been the focus and motivation for engineers, and other establishments that deals with heavy and light machinery, equipment, and devices. One of the biggest ... -
USE OF GENERALIZED GAMMA DISTRIBUTION IN MODELING
Yu, Hongbo (2017-06-01)In this study, we have considered analysis of lifetime or survival data with right censoring, which is the most common form of censoring encountered in practice. Assuming a fully parametric setup, the main objective is to ...
