Statistical Modelling of Survival Data with Random Effects: H-Likelihood Approach By Il Do Ha
English | EPUB | 2017 | 288 Pages | ISBN : 9811065551 | 5.1 MB
This book provides a groundbreaking introduction to the likelihood inference for correlated survival data via the hierarchical (or h-) likelihood in order to obtain the (marginal) likelihood and to address the computational difficulties in inferences and extensions. The approach presented in the book overcomes shortcomings in the traditional likelihood-based methods for clustered survival data such as intractable integration.
