Marginal Models for Modeling Clustered Failure Time Data

Clustered failure time data often arise in biomedical and clinical studies where potential correlation among survival times is induced in a cluster. In this thesis, we develop a class of marginal models for right censored clustered failure time data and propose a novel generalized estimating equatio...
