Description
Summary:碩士 === 淡江大學 === 數學學系碩士班 === 100 === Accelerated failure time model is an attractive alternative to the Cox proportional hazard model since it is more intuitive in interpretation. When the covariates are measured with errors, there is no consistent estimation method so far. When there are replicate measurements, we modified the estimation in Tsiatis (1990) to account for measurement errors. Our method is expected to be consistent and this conjecture is supported by our simulation results.
