右删失事件时间数据的 Copula 连接加性模型AI 解读

This article proposes an approach to estimate and make inference on the parameters of copula link-based survival models. The methodology allows for the margins to be specified using flexible parametric formulations for time-to-event data, the baseline survival functions to be modeled using monotonic splines, and each parameter of the assumed joint survival distribution to depend on an additive predictor incorporating several types of covariate effects. All the model’s…

不可忽略缺失下估计 HIV 流行率的联立方程方法AI 解读

Estimates of HIV prevalence are important for policy to establish the health status of a country’s population and to evaluate the effectiveness of population-based interventions and campaigns. However, participation rates in testing for surveillance conducted as part of household surveys, on which many of these estimates are based, can be low. HIV positive individuals may be less likely to participate because they fear disclosure, in which case estimates obtained using…
