Tied Survival Times In Survival Analysis
Survival analysis is generally defined as a set of methods for analyzing data where the outcome variable is the time until the occurrence of an event of interest. One of the methods commonly used in the survival analysis is Cox regresion model which is used to determine the factors that impact on su...
