Abstract

The analysis of survival times, or in more general terms, the analysisof time to event variables is concerned with models for censoredobservations. Because we cannot always wait until the event of interestactually happens, the methods discussed here are required for anappropriate handling of incomplete observations where we only know thatthe event of interest did not happen within ...

Content

During the course, we will study the most important methods and models for censored data, including - general concepts of censoring, - simple summary statistics, - estimation of survival curves, - frequentist inference for two and more groups, and - regression models for censored observations
