| spelling | oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/4376 A comparison of methods for analysing interval-censored and truncated survival data Davidse, Alistair Juritz, June Mathematical Statistics Bibliography: leaves 49-50. This thesis examines three methods for analysing right-censored data: the Cox proportional hazards model (Cox, 1972), the Buckley-James regression model (Buckley and James, 1979) and the accelerated failure time model. These models are extended to incorporate the analysis of interval-censored and left-truncated data. The models are compared in an attempt to determine whether one model performs better than the others in terms of goodness-of-it and in terms of predictive power. Plots of the residuals and random effects from the Cox proportional hazards model are also examined. 2014-07-30T17:43:56Z 2014-07-30T17:43:56Z 2004 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/4376 eng application/pdf Department of Statistical Sciences Faculty of Science University of Cape Town |
