Maximum likelihood estimation for semiparametric regression models with interval-censored multistate data
区间删失多状态数据半参数回归模型的最大似然估计
Summary Interval-censored multistate data arise in many studies of chronic diseases, where the health status of a subject can be characterized by a finite number of disease states and the transition between any two states is only known to occur over a broad time interval. We relate potentially time-dependent covariates to multistate processes through semiparametric proportional intensity models with random effects. We study nonparametric maximum likelihood estimation under…
