A Modification of the Redistribution to the Right Algorithm Using Disease Markers
利用疾病标志物改进向右再分配算法
Disease markers are time-dependent covariates which describe progression towards development of disease. Traditional methods in survival analysis do not make use of available data on these markers to recover additional information from censored individuals. Using a heuristic modification of the redistribution to the right algorithm (Efron, 1967), a new approach for recovering information for censored individuals using disease markers is proposed. Additionally, the…
