A nonparametric method for predicting survival probabilities

Klaauw, Bas van der; Vriend, Sandra - 2015

the program. The literature uses linear probability models and (Cox) proportional hazard models to predict duration … outcomes. These either focus on one threshold duration or impose proportionality. In this paper we propose a nonparametric …

Instrumental variable estimation for duration data

Bijwaard, Govert - 2008

variable in a duration model. We assume a Generalized Accelerated Failure Time (GAFT) model. This model is based on … approaches to duration data; the (Mixed) Proportional Hazard (MPH) model and the Accelerated Failure Time (AFT) model. The basis … influence the hazard of the transformed duration. The inverse of an extended rank test provide the estimation equations the IVLR …

The non-parametric identification of the mixed proportional hazards competing risks model

Abbring, Jaap H.; Berg, Gerard J. van den - 2000

We prove identification of dependent competing risks models in which each risk has a mixed proportional hazard specification with regressors, and the risks are dependent by way of the unobserved heterogeneity, or frailty, components. We show that the conditions for non-parametric identification...

Do stepping stone jobs exist? : early career paths in the medical profession

Berg, Gerard J. van den; Holm, Anders; Ours, Jan C. van - 1999

In the Netherlands, students who want to become a medical specialist have toenrol in a training program which is in limited supply. During the search for aposition as trainee (or "junior medical specialist"), they may accept atemporary job as a medical assistant. We use a micro data set to...

Flexible mixture-amount models for business and industry using Gaussian processes

Ruseckaite, Aiste; Fok, Dennis; Goos, Peter - 2016

Many products and services can be described as mixtures of ingredients whose proportions sum to one. Specialized models have been developed for linking the mixture proportions to outcome variables, such as preference, quality and liking. In many scenarios, only the mixture proportions matter for...

A K-sample homogeneity test based on the quantification of the p-p plot

Hinloopen, Jeroen; Wagenvoort, Rien; Marrewijk, Charles van - 2008

We propose a quantification of the p-p plot that assigns equal weight to all distances between the respective distributions: the surface between the p-p plot and the diagonal. This surface is labelled the Harmonic Weighted Mass (HWM) index. We introduce the diagonal-deviation (d-d) plot that...
