Bayesian Nonparametric Survival Analysis
贝叶斯非参数生存分析
This article considers a Bayesian nonparametric approach to a (right) censored data problem. Although the results are applicable to a wide variety of such problems, including reliability analysis, the discussion centers on medical survival studies. We extend the posterior distribution of percentiles given by Hill (1968) to obtain predictive posterior probabilities for the survival of one or more new patients, using data from other individuals having the same disease and…
