Nonparametric and Semiparametric Methods for Multivariate
Failure Time Data
Description
Nonparametric survival function estimates and semiparametric
regression for the multivariate failure time data with right-censoring.
For nonparametric survival function estimates, the Volterra, Dabrowska,
and Prentice-Cai estimates for bivariate failure time data may be
computed as well as the Dabrowska estimate for the trivariate failure
time data. Bivariate marginal hazard rate regression can be fitted for
the bivariate failure time data. Functions are also provided to compute
(bootstrap) confidence intervals and plot the estimates of the bivariate
survival function. For details, see "The Statistical Analysis of
Multivariate Failure Time Data: A Marginal Modeling Approach", Prentice,
R., Zhao, S. (2019, ISBN: 978-1-4822-5657-4), CRC Press.
