Variable selection in frailty mixture cure models via penalized likelihood estimation
脆弱混合治愈模型中的惩罚似然变量选择
Variable selection naturally arises as a useful subject when faced with data with massive predictor space. In addition to the massive dimensionality, the data may be characterized by intra-subject correlation, and cure fraction, which are ubiquitous in longitudinal studies with recurrent events defining the endpoint of interest. However, variable selection methods simultaneously adjusting for intra-subject correlation, and cure fraction are rare. We propose a comprehensive…
