Survival analysis with time dependent frailty using a longitudinal model

    Research output: Journal Publications and ReviewsRGC 22 - Publication in policy or professional journal

    Abstract

    A method of estimation for generalised mixed models is applied to the estimation of regression parameters in a proportional hazards model with time dependent frailty. A parameter representing change over time is introduced and is modelled in turn into a fixed effect, a normally distributed random effect and a longitudinal effect in which the random component relates to the patient characteristics. Both maximum likelihood and residual maximum likelihood estimators are given.
