Semiparametric Efficient Estimation for a Class of Generalized Proportional Odds Cure Models
一类广义比例优势治愈模型的半参数有效估计
We present a mixture cure model with the survival time of the "uncured" group coming from a class of linear transformation models, which is an extension of the proportional odds model. This class of model, first proposed by Dabrowska and Doksum (1988), which we term "generalized proportional odds model," is well suited for the mixture cure model setting due to a clear separation between long-term and short-term effects. A standard expectation-maximization algorithm can be…
